DK Submits Urine Samples To Protest Drug Test Proposal
- 9 Dec 2014 8:00 AM
Bendegúz Koppány Szarvas, head of the Young Democrats (IDE), told the press that Kocsis regards all young people as drug addicts.
DK board member László Varju said the implementation of Kocsis’ proposal would cost 40 billion forints (EUR 130m) as against 100 million forints allocated in next year’s budget for drug prevention.
Kocsis is already responsible for the cancellation of a needle exchange scheme for drug users in the district which had been “saving lives”, he added.
Fidesz lawmakers support Kocsis’ initiative with “strong refinements”, the party’s group leader said.
The most important change to the bill is that parents of minors would be informed about the result of the test, which would not be coupled with any legal consequences.
