July 06 TRANSFORM NEWS
Milton Friedman Economist, Nobel Prize winner (economics) "Our emphasis here is based not only on the growing seriousness of drug-related crimes, but also on the belief that relieving our police and our courts from having to fight losing battles against drugs will enable their energies and facilities to be devoted more fully to combating other forms of crime. We would thus strike a double blow: reduce crime activity directly, and at the same time increase the efficacy of law enforcement and crime prevention." Parliament is now in recess, but in a final flurry of reporting before the holiday, as you may have seen in the media, the Science & Technology committee released their report on the drugs classification system… and boy did they go for the jugular! Scathing about the lack of science underpinning UK drug policy decisions and the agencies that support them – the ACMD, the Home Office and the classification system in general. Transform was quoted 8 times – having a significant impact on the final report – some of the best work we’ve ever done on a highly significant parliamentary report. Read more detail below. Back in the organisation we’ve been busy recruiting for an Office Manager and eliciting some fine work from our team of volunteers (see below), as well as mixing it up in the national and international media. and…. As always – please remember that you can do a lot more than just read this newsletter - discuss the issues on the Transform forum and blog, help publicise Transform and the website, make a donation, read the ‘what you can do’ bit *see bottom of the news letter*, join our team of volunteers and get active! -------------------- - Please keep your comments, ideas, stories and contacts coming in. e-mail: info@tdpf.org.uk , - Forward this onto your friends; subscribers can join by visiting: http://www.tdpf.org.uk/Contact.htm - All previous newsletters are viewable on our website should you have missed them or only just signed up: http://www.tdpf.org.uk/Newsletter.htm - Make a donation – as ever we need financial support to maintain the organisation…set up a regular donation online here: http://www.tdpf.org.uk/index_online_giving_links.htm Thanks for reading!

** Science & Technology committee Report The Science and Technology Committee published its Fifth Report of Session 2005-06, Drug classification: making a hash of it? , [HC 1031], on Monday 31 July 2006. The report is part of the wider enquiry titled ‘ Scientific advice, risk and evidence: How Government handles them’. Transform, in its written and oral evidence to the committee, has been keen to stress that the issue is more than just asking how individual drugs are classified – but rather that the entire classification system is un-evidenced, unscientific and unsustainable. Transform spokesperson Steve Rolles said: “ Transform welcomes the fact that the committee has taken on board the broader critique of the classification system rather than getting bogged down in a pointless debate about why each drug is in a particular class. The bigger issue at stake here, is that the entire classification system is based on drug war ideology, has no scientific basis whatsoever, and does the exact opposite of what it is intended to do. We would like to see this is a prelude to a more significant inquiry into the evidence base for the criminalisation of drugs per se .” The Science and Technology Select Committee Press Release is available here: http://www.tdpf.org.uk/MediaNews_PressReleases_31_07_06.htm#news and the full document is available to read here: http://www.tdpf.org.uk/Drug%20classification.pdf A selection of news articles on this story: Observer: “ Home Office opens door to lighter drug penalties” (09.07.06) Guardian : "Class Matters" (01.08.06) Independent : "Drugs the real deal" (01.08.06) http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/health_medical/article1207619.ece Guardian : "MP's savage Government's 'ad hoc' drug policy"(31.07.06) http://www.guardian.co.uk/drugs/Story/0,,1833888,00.html BBC News : " Drug Classification Rethink Urged" (31.07.06) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/5230006.stm Yahoo News : " Booze and Fags Must Be Class B Drugs" (31.07.06) http://uk.news.yahoo.com/31072006/140/booze-fags-must-class-b-drugs.html Independent on Sunday : "MPs: Scrap useless drug classification" (30.07.06): By Sophie Goodchild and Angela Foster The current harm-rating system for drugs, including ecstasy and cannabis, is outdated, confused and should be scrapped, according to an influential committee of MPs. A hard-hitting report from the Science and Technology Committee, published tomorrow, is expected to say that classifying drugs within a hierarchy of harm, with A the most serious and C the least, has done nothing to deter drug use or supply since being introduced more than 30 years ago. It is understood that MPs will highlight an alternative system suggested by scientific experts based on a "harm spectrum", where issues such as the age of the user, their medical history and how the drug is consumed are all taken into account when assessing risk. The committee's recommendations, which will be presented to the Government, are based on evidence taken from police, scientists and experts from drugs charities. This is the first review of the current drugs classification system to be carried out since it was introduced in 1971. Drugs are classified as A, B or C, with different penalties according to the harm caused and whether the drug is likely to be misused. The Home Secretary decides what harm rating individual drugs should be given based on evidence provided by advisers, who assess the drugs according to the problems they cause to society and users. For example, class A drugs such as heroin and cocaine carry a maximum sentence of seven years in prison for possession and a life sentence for supply or intent to supply. Class B drugs carry a five-year sentence for possession or 14 years for supply. Class C drugs, which include anabolic steroids and cannabis, carry a two-year sentence with 14 years for supply. The classification of individual drugs can change over time if new evidence shows that they pose a greater or lesser risk to society. David Blunkett, the former home secretary, reclassified cannabis from a class B to a class C drug in January 2004 in response to advice from the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs. But his successor, Charles Clarke, came under huge pressure to move the drug back to class B status earlier this year when he was Home Secretary, following new medical evidence linking cannabis use to mental health problems. Experts have long argued that some drugs have been placed in "arbitrary" categories that do not reflect the truth about their harmful effects. For example, some anti-drug campaigners have said that the club drug ecstasy and magic mushrooms should not be in category A alongside heroin and crack cocaine because they are less addictive. Mr Clarke commissioned a consultation paper earlier this year on drugs classification, but this is understood to have been put on hold since he resigned from the Cabinet. The MPs' report, called Making a Hash of It?, is understood to highlight concerns that the current system is irrelevant to modern society, where recreational drug use is widespread; it warns that the system may even be used as a quality guide by teenagers. The drugs education charity Transform told MPs during an evidence hearing that the grading system had "failed in quite spectacular fashion", with drug use increasing over the past 45 years and illegal substances becoming more widely available. The committee was told the grading system influenced public opinion, the media and politicians, so it was important to get it right, and that drugs were too complex to be assessed under a rigid classification system. -------------------- ** Quantity Thresholds for Drug Possession: A Policy Perspective Lifeline Project (more on Lifeline in UK Links below) Following on from the new Drugs Act 2005, a glaring omission was the amounts of drugs people could carry around before being seen as having intent to supply. “ This change in the legislative framework has given rise to considerable speculation with regards to what would or should be considered to be the appropriate 'prescribed amount' that would (automatically) presume Possession with Intent to Supply (PIS)”. Lifeline have written a report and for an overview of this see: http://www.lifeline.org.uk/newsdetail.asp?ID=100 For an in-depth discussion of this issue is undertaken in the f ull report: http://www.lifeline.org.uk/documents/Thresholds_Report_FINAL.pdf Transform’s submission to the Home office consultation on clause 2 considers how such bad policy came into being: http://www.tdpf.org.uk/Policy_General_Drugs_Act_clause_2.htm -------------------- ** Back Afghan opium legalization, Tories urge Cameron July 24 Guardian "The poppy crops are the elephant in the room of the Afghan problem. We’re in complete denial of the power that the crops have on the nation as a whole, and the tactics of eradication are simply not working," "If you look at the timing of the eradication programmes and the flare-ups of the violence, often it happens in the same week." "Seven developed countries use 80% of the world’s morphine, and developing countries with growing numbers of Aids and cancer cases simply don’t have access to these medicines. Even developed countries such as Italy have shortages. We could use Afghan morphine for those countries that desperately need it," For the rest of the article: http://politics.guardian.co.uk/foreignaffairs/story/0,,1827679,00.html Quotes from David Cameron in favour of change in the current drug strategy: As a member of the Home Affairs Select Committee inquiry into drug misuse in 2002 – he voted in favour of recommendation 24: "24. We recommend that the Government initiates a discussion within the Commission on Narcotic Drugs of alternative ways—including the possibility of legalisation and regulation—to tackle the global drugs dilemma (paragraph 267)." Source: http://www.parliament.the-stationery-office.co.uk/pa/cm200102/cmselect/cmhaff/318/31814.htm He was also quoted in the Independent saying: "Politicians attempt to appeal to the lowest common denominator by posturing with tough policies and calling for crackdown after crackdown. Drugs policy has been failing for decades." http://www.tdpf.org.uk/MediaNews_LatestNews_07_09_05.htm
-------------------- ** Bad Science: Prohibition Vs the Gold Standard Dr Ben Goldacre Taking the release of the Science & Technology committee’s report as an example, in his Bad Science column, Dr Ben Goldacre questions “ how does the world of prohibition match up against our gold standards for bad science?” “Like the food gurus, prohibitionists will cherry pick research that suits them, measure inappropriate surrogate outcomes, and wishfully over-interpret data: a prohibitionist will observe that less cannabis has been seized, and declare that this means there is less cannabis on the streets, rather than less police interest”. For the rest of the article: http://www.badscience.net/?p=273 There is also an opportunity to leave your own comments on this or any other of his pieces.
*Is Meth America's No 1 Drug Problem? July 19 ‘Stats’ George Mason University Now I know we’re in the UK section and this is obviously a US related piece, but it fits in nicely with Bad Science. It’s a well touted fact that meth is the US’s biggest drug problem (it is undoubtedly a problem), but the following article questions the research used in a recent report, and disputes this. As it turns out “ treatment centers and surveys of drug use in the population do not find meth to be the biggest drug problem” and “the Sentencing Project only just released a study (http://www.sentencingproject.org/pdfs/methamphetamine_report.pdf) claiming that “methamphetamine is among the least commonly used drugs” and furthermore “b uried on the back of the report is the fact that only three counties in California and one county in Arizona were part of the survey”. Read on: http://www.stats.org/stories/is_meth_number_one_jul19_06.htm ------------------- **Addiction Careers and the Natural History of Change National Treatment Agency for Substance Misuse July 06 “The briefing discusses the evidence supporting the theory that most drug misusers will “mature out” of their drug use – albeit after many years in some cases – while recognising there will be a number of problem users… “Charles Winick (1962) advanced a “maturing out” hypothesis, suggesting that addiction might be a form of self-limiting phenomenon with most addicts ending problematic use by the time they reached their thirties…. “The majority of drug users will overcome their dependence eventually and, even among those with problems severe enough to enter treatment services, around two-thirds are likely to achieve stable and enduring abstinence by around twenty years after initiation. For the vast majority of heroin users whose use does not lead to treatment seeking, their careers are likely to be markedly shorter”.

---- 2. INTERNATIONAL NEWS ---- ** NIDA Announces Recommendations to Treat Drug Abusers, Save Money, and Reduce Crime 27 July The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) – not famous for its balanced research agenda – in the US has “released a landmark scientific report showing that effective treatment of drug abuse and addiction can save communities money and reduce crime”. (My goodness!) “Untreated substance abuse adds significant costs to communities, including violent and property crimes, prison expenses, court and criminal costs, emergency room visits, child abuse and neglect, lost child support, foster care and welfare costs, reduced productivity, unemployment, and victimization”.

The new policy, unveiled yesterday, also says drug prevention is one pillar of the city's Four Pillars drug policy that is being overlooked. "A person's behaviour, rather than the unlawful possession or use, should be the primary factor in determining whether to lay a charge," Insp. Scott Thompson, the Vancouver Police Department's drug policy co-ordinator, said yesterday.

The debate will be chaired by Joan Bakewell. http://www.intelligencesquared.com/event_future.php?d=20061114 ------------- Parliament is in recess until the 9 th October, we have omitted the parliament section and increased the Media bit: **MEDIA WRITE letters to newspapers, magazines and other publications - local and national . One of the easiest ways to get your views into the public arena is to look out for drug related stories in newspapers (and other publications) and respond in the letters pages. Keep letters concise and relate them to a story that the paper has run. Not every letter will get printed but if a number of letters is received on a certain issue editors are more likely to print one of them, so it can still make a difference. Read the letters pages and use the kind of letters that are getting published as your guide. The earlier you respond the more likely you are to catch the eye of the letters editors. For daily newspapers try and get your response off before lunch to maximise your chances of making the next days edition (Major stories may have letters over a couple of days – and sometimes run responses to earlier letters). All newspapers now accept letters by email making the process much quicker and easier if you have internet access. Email letters will always require full contact details, and for some including the Times a phone number will also be required as they will contact you before running your letter (to check facts and make sure the letter is not running elsewhere). For a useful directory of all UK media contacts and links visit: http://www.mediauk.com/ CALL phone-in radio programmes Calling radio phone-ins is an easy way to broadcast your views to a wide audience. Local and national radio phone-ins are always keen to liven up the debate, and are often interested in alternative views such as drug legalisation and regulation - that can be well argued and backed up. On drug related debates you have a good chance of getting on air if you make you point clearly to the producers who field the phone in calls. In our experience radio programmes are generally very receptive to Transform's ideas. COMPLAIN If news stories, dramas, or advertising related to drugs are biased, misleading or factually incorrect. Visit http://www.tdpf.org.uk/Links_UkMedia.htm for the relevant links. But also…. CONGRATULATE editors, journalists, writers, producers if they're getting it right. Remember that positive feedback is at least as important as negative. WRITE an article for a paper or magazine. If you have a particular area of expertise, interest or experience consider writing a feature or comment piece for a publication. If it is your first attempt go for a local newspaper, publication or newsletter and see how you get on (run it by us first if you like). Try and make your piece relevant to local concerns and introduce wider concerns using local examples. Have a chat to the features editor about your idea to get some pointers. They will often ask for a summary of your article idea before commissioning a piece. You can also submit a completed piece but it will have less chance of publication. KEEP the media in mind ...in any actions, events or developing issues you are involved in. Think about whether there is possible media interest. If you are not sure you can always call up your local newspaper, TV or Radio stations and ask. Just ask for the news desk or forward planning. For more information contact Transform or visit: http://www.tdpf.org.uk/Parliament_WhatYouCanDo.htm *Try some other unlikely places…… The Daily Mail for example; a long time bastion of reactionary Drug War thinking has recently begun to open up to more progressive policy ideas. Whether you like the paper or not, the fact remains that it is highly influential in Whitehall and read by millions of floating voters. Many news stories and opinion pieces offer an opportunity to add comments at the end – so if you see a drug story that you think doesn’t tell the whole story – let them know! -------------------- **ONLINE ACTIVISM The internet gives you the opportunity to engage the drug law reform debate as never before. There are literally thousands of online forums, discussion groups, and media feedback opportunities where you can get involved and inject a little common sense into the debate. (see above articles for a few ideas). They Work For You : detailed transcripts of parliamentary debates you can comment on. The following link will take you to all the recent debates involving the words ‘illegal & drugs’ http://www.theyworkforyou.com/search/?s=illegal+drugs A lot of newspapers, from the Guardian to the Daily mail now allow you to post comments on news and comment items, as well as having extensive discussion forums. Get involved – it’s easy and makes a real difference. For further advice please call the Transform office on 0117 941 5810.
