Written question asked by Bob Stewart (Conservative) on Monday, 16 January 2023, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 18 January 2023. It was answered by Chris Philp (Conservative) on Tuesday, 24 January 2023 on behalf of the Home Office.


Nitrous Oxide: Misuse

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what progress has been made on the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs' review into potential harms caused by nitrous oxide launched in September 2021.

Answer

The Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) is an advisory non-departmental public body. The ACMD is independent of Government and therefore the timescales for, and progress of, their reviews are a matter for them.

Home Office officials work closely with the ACMD and the Government will consider their recommendations on nitrous oxide once they are published.
