Sunday Opinion - 30th April 2017

This week, Roger takes a closer look at the debate over changing the Island’s policy on illegal drugs.

He’ll be in conversation with Jane Slater of Transform Drug Policy Foundation and Ray Lakeman, who’s two sons died after taking an overdose.

They were both guest speakers at a meeting organised by the Positive Action Group and the Isle of Man Freethinkers this week to outline a case for the legalisation and regulation of drugs.

He’ll also be talking to Chief Executive of the Department of Health and Social Care Malcolm Couch about the idea of legalising drugs from the perspective of the health service.
