§ Mr. Buchananasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will now increase the researches into the causes, social and physical, of drug taking and drug addiction in Scotland and also establish more centres for the treatment of the disease.
§ Mr. Gordon CampbellDrug addiction is treated in mental hospitals or in psychiatric units of general hospitals and in one specialised unit at the Southern General Hospital, Glasgow. The size of the problem is not such as to call for additional centres, nor to make it a first priority, for research in Scotland, although 201W support can be made available for worthwhile projects in this field.
