Methylamphetamine

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will (a) undertake a public awareness campaign about the impact of the misuse of methylamphetamine and (b) set out the risks associated with misuse of the drug.
Answer

The risks associated with the misuse of methylamphetamine were clearly set out in the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) report published in November 2005 and available on the Home Office website, www.drugs.gov.uk. I do not plan to undertake a dedicated public awareness campaign about the impact of the drug at this stage but information is readily available at the Frank website www.talktofrank.com.
