Labour (Co-op) — Bathgate and Linlithgow

Speaking in the House of Commons on 5 November 2025

Debate

Drug-related Deaths

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for securing this important debate. Scotland has had the highest number of drug deaths in Europe for seven years in a row; there were 1,017 in 2024. Does she agree that cuts to funding for rehabilitation facilities and drug and alcohol support services undermine the holistic, comprehensive approach needed if we are to bring down the number of drug deaths, and to give hope to those living with addiction, and to their families?
