HC Deb 13 February 1968 vol 758 c317W
108. Mr. Deedes

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he proposes to introduce legislation to cover the misuse of the drug methedrine.

Mr. Taverne:

Methedrine is already subject to control under the Drugs (Prevention of Misuse) Act, 1964, and Schedule 4B of the Poisons Rules, 1968. The Advisory Committee on Drug Dependence is considering whether further safeguards against misuse are needed.
