Regulation Is Not Promotion

We regulate dangerous things not because we want to promote them – but because control protects better than prohibition.

The Five Pillars of Regulation

🔬

Rialú Cáilíochta

Substaintí tástáilte saotharlainne le híonacht agus dáileog aitheanta. Gan truaillitheoirí, gan meascán breiseán anaithnid. Cosúil le cógais: caighdeáin a shábhálann beatha.

🏥

Tacaíocht Leighis

Comhairle éigeantach don chéad úsáid. Seiceálacha sláinte rialta. Measúnú riosca agus idirghabháil luath. Speisialtóirí oilte in ionad díolachán anaithnid sráide.

🔒

Teorainneacha Aoise agus Rialú Rochtana

Fíorú aoise dian, teorainneacha cainníochta, tréimhsí feithimh. Níos mó rialaithe ná díolachán alcóil reatha – ní níos lú.

Maoiniú Cosc

Téann ioncam cánach chuig cosc, oideachas agus teiripe. Cláir scoile, tacaíocht pobail, taighde. Oibríonn airgead ar son na sochaí, ní ar son cartéil.

🛡️

Príobháideacht mar Bhunús

Níl clár lárnach tomhaltóirí ann. Níl sonraí á roinnt leis na póilíní nó le fostóirí. Rúndacht leighis. Tagann muinín ó chosaint, ní ó fhaireachas.

Privacy: Trust Through Protection

A regulated system only works if people trust it. Trust comes from protection, not surveillance.

❌ What Does NOT Happen

  • No central consumer registry
  • No data sharing with police
  • No employer access
  • No driver's license linking

✅ What IS Guaranteed

  • Medical confidentiality
  • Independent oversight
  • Purpose-limited health data
  • Anonymous statistics

Common Concerns

! Doesn't this normalize drug use?

Use is already normalized: Over 80 million Europeans have used illegal drugs. What's not normal: that they die because no one knows what's in it. Regulation adds safety, not acceptance.

International Examples

Regulation is not theory – it's practiced worldwide. See the results.
