HC Deb 22 November 1928 vol 222 c1893
13. Colonel VAUGHAN - MORGAN

asked the Home Secretary whether the alkaloid codeine has been added to the schedule under the Dangerous Drugs Act; if not, whether it is proposed to do so; and, if so, when this will be done?

Sir V. HENDERSON

The answer to both parts of the question is in the negative. Coleine is not regarded by most authorities as a habit-forming drug and is not included in the International Conventions of The Hague and Geneva.
