The strategy is conducted on five main fronts;- reducing supplies
from abroad, increasing the effectiveness of enforcement,
maintaining effective deterrents and tight domestic controls,
developing prevention and education, and improving treatment and
rehabilitation. Also, describes how the dangers already inherent
in drug misuse have been intensified by the need to stop drug
injecting now that this has become a significant route to AIDS
infection. Includes a list of allocations made to local education
authorities in 1987-88 for initiatives aimed at combating the
misuse of drugs. 21 References.
