Proceeding contribution from Tom Brake (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 December 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate and Backbench debate on Drugs Policy.
Drugs Policy
I apologise for not being in the Chamber at the beginning of this important debate and I welcome the opportunity to discuss this issue today. The hon. Lady sets out an alternative approach to tackling the drugs problem. Does she agree that, whatever policies are advocated, it is essential that they are properly assessed for their effectiveness in reducing crime and improving health, and that they should be based on sound science and regularly reviewed after implementation to check whether they continue to be effective?
