Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, which (a) organisations and (b) individuals his Department has held discussions with on the consumption of illegal drugs at UK music festivals since April 2018.
This question was answered on 22nd June 2018
Home Office officials are in regular contact with the National Policing Lead regarding the consumption of illegal drugs at UK music festivals.
No illegal drug-taking can be assumed to be safe and there is no safe way to take them.
While operational decisions are a matter for Chief Constables, the Government and the public expect the police to enforce the law.
