Scottish authorities approved a 2.3 million pound ($2.8 million) drug consumption room on Wednesday, the first government-backed facility in the United Kingdom where users may use illegal drugs, including cocaine and heroin, under the observation of medical experts. Local officials in Glasgow, Scotland, authorised the facility on Wednesday after it had been delayed for a long time due to political issues.
