"Mr President, as a member of Dublin’s North Inner City Drugs Task Force, I have received an increasing number of reports of violence, harassment and intimidation targeted against the families – including elderly parents – of drug users and against addicts over drug debts, very often involving small sums of money.
In 2008, the Dial to Stop Drug Dealing and Threats service was launched in Ireland. It provides a confidential service for reporting drug dealing. Since then, there have been over 9 000 calls to the service, resulting in two and a half thousand reports to the Irish police’s drugs unit.
I would like to urge the Commission to now consider introducing a common Europe-wide Dial to Stop Drug Dealing and Threats service, similar to the Europe-wide numbers for missing children, child help lines, crime victims and non-emergency medical calls.
I would also urge the Commission to support and fund this very useful public service under the EU drugs action plan, the Daphne Programme, and other similar EU initiatives, so that we can deal with this issue on a transnational and Europe-wide basis."@en1
