The HRB/NDTRS LINK system will be updated from today at 1pm. This will include minor changes including clearer wording for answer options on the Drug-related intimidation (DRI) module; and some questions relevant to Affected Family Members and process addiction support cases.
Changes have been made to the available response options on the DRI tab for the following questions:
Q13. What supports/interventions offered?
New response option added: Support/intervention type unknown/not recorded.
Response option removed: DRI Specific Information.
Q14. What was the outcome of the intimidation?
New response option added: DRI safety measures employed
New response option added: Breakdown of family relationships
New response option added: Negative financial implications of debt
These response options will more accurately represent peoples’ experiences of DRI, ensuring the production of a more complete evidence base for research and policy development.
Please refer to the updated DRI data collection protocol available on LINK and contact NDTRS@hrb.ie if you have any questions.
