Methylamphetamine

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what advice he has received from the police on the classification of methylamphetamine.
Answer

Two representatives of the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) are full members of the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs and contribute their expertise and knowledge of policing issues to the council.One such representative was a member during ACMD's consideration of methylamphetamine, and was closely involved in, and supportive of, the recommendations made to the Government in the council's report. In addition, I am aware that ACPO are closely monitoring the situation regarding methylamphetamine in the UK and we will continue to seek the views of the police wherever appropriate.
