Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the UK's policy will be on substantial changes to the international drugs control regime at the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs in Vienna in March 2015.

The Coalition Government and our strategic international partners do not support substantial change to the UN drug control conventions.

The Conventions provide a robust framework for tackling the harms caused by drugs. We continue to work with our partners to promote a balance and evidence-based international approach to drugs within the UN conventions.
