Those found in possession of drugs for personal use will be diverted to the health services, under the new draft Programme for Government.
It says the new government will "commit to a health-led approach to drug addiction and divert those found in possession of drugs for personal use to health services".
However, it does not specify to which drugs the new rules will apply, and does not use the term "decriminalise" as was used in the Fianna Fáil pre-election manifesto.
It also pledges to use drones to complement the work of the naval service in patrolling the coastlines for drug trafficking and requiring social media companies to provide gardaí with information on their platforms relating to the supply of illegal drugs.
The document pledges a regional office for the DPP, the recruitment of 5,000 additional gardaí and allowing some garda training to take place in regional technical universities.
It promises to deploy facial recognition technology for serious crimes and missing person cases, and the expansion of body cams to all frontline gardaí.
The document pledges to ban the use of facial coverings at protests and also ban protests outside private homes.
It also promises specialist judges to handle cases of domestic, gender and sexual-based violence and a review of consent laws within twelve months.
It also contains a commitment to review the maximum sentences available for offences relating to child sexual abuse.

Responsibility for International Protection accommodation and integration will return to the Department of Justice, which will now be called the Department of Justice, Home Affairs and Migration.
In the last Government it was under the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth.
International Protection applicants will be required to contribute towards their accommodation costs.
The programme for government also stated that supports to International Protection (IP) applicants will be withdrawn "where they have failed to comply with the IP process, committed a serious breach of house rules (in their accommodation) or where they have engaged in serious criminal behaviour."
Applicants who receive a final negative decision will also no longer be entitled to Material Reception Conditions, which include housing, food, clothing and a daily expenses allowance.
It also committed to giving a greater lead-in time to the opening of new International Protection accommodation facilities which it said will allow for "enhanced and effective local communication, and development of integration."
As part of efforts to improve integration of migrants into Irish society it said it would "enforce policies to protect migrants from exploitation and abuse, highlighting the social and economic benefits of migration to counter anti-immigration sentiments."
It said it would "explore the expansion of eligible roles for employment permits."
It committed to merging the visa and employment permit system into "one user-friendly single application procedure".
It pledged to "examine ways" to facilitate people who are on work permits to move jobs more easily and legally.
There is also a commitment to "link migration policy with education" in order to allow international students in certain disciplines, especially those in STEM, "to transition smoothly from student visas to permanent residency" which it said would "help retain the talent that has been trained within Ireland."
