The Drug and Alcohol Information System (DAISy) is a national database developed to collect drug and alcohol referral, waiting times and outcome information from staff delivering specialist drug and alcohol interventions.

DAISy gathers key demographic and outcome data on people who engage with drug/alcohol treatment services. It enables a better understanding of the impact of drug/alcohol treatment services at both a local and national level and consequently will:
