Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether he is taking steps to ensure that people who are arrested are tested to see if their drink has been spiked.

The Home Office has no plans to implement mandatory spiking testing for arrestees.

We urge anyone who believes they or someone around them has been spiked to contact the police as soon as possible to report the incident and submit a urine sample for testing through the approved lab-based process. Incidents can also be reported online - including anonymously.

Individuals who have been arrested by the police but believe they have been spiked can raise this with them and submit a sample for testing.
