Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans he has to publish an implementation plan for the 2017 Drug Strategy.

We have established a Drug Strategy Board which includes representation from Government departments and wider partners that are critical to successful delivery of the Strategy, including those in education, health, criminal justice, housing and employment. The Board is chaired by the Home Secretary and its purpose is to oversee and drive implementation of the commitments in the 2017 Drug Strategy. The Board has met twice since the Drug Strategy was published.
