Queensland's state government plans to offer free, confidential pill testing at Schoolies on the Gold Coast.

Queensland's state government plans to provide confidential and free pill testing at Schoolies on the Gold Coast, after national data revealed young women are taking illicit drugs at the same rate as men. The $80,000 service will be located close to the entertainment precinct in Surfers Paradise and co-located with other health services. This expansion follows the government's $1 million investment to fund the delivery and evaluation of fixed-site and event-based drug-checking services.
