Mr. Cameron: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many addicts are receiving methadone replacement treatment
for heroin addiction. [16023]
Mr. Bob Ainsworth: Since the Home Office Addicts Index closed in 1997, the Regional Drug Misuse Databases (RDMDs) have been the main
source of information on people presenting to drug treatment services with a drug problem. During the six month period ending 30
September 2000, around 21,200 people were reported to the RDMDs in England as presenting for treatment with heroin recorded as their
main drug of misuse. Around 6,200 of these people were reported as being prescribed methadone for treatment at the time they
presented; other heroin users may subsequently have been prescribed methadone.
