The Illicit Drug Reporting System (IDRS) is a national drug monitoring system intended to identify emerging trends of local and national concern in illicit drug markets, and form part of Drug Trends.
The aim of this bulletin is to examine the prevalence of public injecting in the IDRS sample over time and whether there were any differences observed in these prevalences between Sydney and Melbourne, where supervised injecting facilities have been implemented compared to the remaining capital cities. Key correlates associated with recent public injecting was also examined.
