Drugs Policy

Proceeding contribution from Victoria Atkins (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 23 October 2018. It occurred during Debate on Drugs Policy.

I will not, as I am conscious of time. People wander into drug consumption rooms, having bought their fixes on the street. We have no guarantees on the safety of those substances. The Government simply cannot condone that sort of behaviour, not least because it falls foul of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971, but also because it would not be responsible to support the illegal market.
