Synthetic Cannabinoids: Reclassification

Proceeding contribution from Vicky Ford (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 November 2018. It occurred during Debate on Synthetic Cannabinoids: Reclassification.

I thank my hon. Friend for giving way again and yet again he is making a really important point. I heard a tragic story when I visited my local prison recently. Three prisoners died after taking drugs. All three were also taking epilepsy drugs and there may be an issue there. With these synthetic drugs, we simply do not know what they do or how they interact with common medicines. Is that not another reason for treating this matter more seriously?
