HC Deb 27 January 1972 vol 829 c489W
32. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what action he is taking to prevent the distribution of microdot tablets of LSD under the powers given by the Misuse of Drugs Act.

Mr. Sharples

The relevant parts of the Misuse of Drugs Act, 1971, are not yet in force, but the police are actively using the powers provided by the Dangerous Drugs Act, 1967, to enforce the general prohibition on possession of this substance.
