When asked about the government’s policy on drugs, the Prime Minister’s Official Spokesperson (PMOS) said the policies the government has been taking forward since 2010 are the right ones as drug use is falling. A report published today pointed out that the UK continues to pursue a balanced, evidence-based approach to the misuse of drugs, the PMOS added.
