I'd like to clarify that my position is not that there is no evidence for prescribed safer supply. My position is that there is conflicting evidence. We know that there are some benefits for people who access prescribed safer supply, and we know that there are some potential harms. What is not clear is where that balances out in terms of risks and harms. Any time we do any intervention, that's the question; is the balance of benefits higher than the balance of harms?
