NSW to trial pill testing at festivals in 2025 to reduce drug harm, keeping possession illegal.

New South Wales will trial pill testing at 10-12 music festivals starting in early 2025, aiming to reduce drug-related harm. The $1 million trial, involving NSW Police and Health, includes peer advice on harm reduction but does not legalize drug use; possession remains illegal. This follows similar initiatives in Victoria, Queensland, and the ACT.
