Broadcaster Tom Elliott has warned that drug use in Victoria will become legitimised if pill testing is given the green light.
“We have very deliberately embarked upon a health led response in our alcohol and other drug policy.
“We’ll continue with that reform agenda and continue taking a health led response and over time, should there be evidence to suggest that there’s more that we need to do, of course as policymakers we look at it but at the moment there are no plans.” “Although this is the same government that says, ‘let’s have an injection room for heroin users’,” he said.
“And if we are going to make them legal, fine… you can have pill testing, you can have injecting rooms.It comes as the state government considers introducing a second safe injecting room, in Melbourne’s CBD.
