HC Deb 30 March 1983 vol 40 c143W
Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if the prison service, in co-operation with the National Association for the Care and Settlement of Offenders and the Standing Conference on Drug Abuse, has created an organisation specifically devoted to work with ex-drug dependents within prison.

Mr. Mellor

No, but the prison service is co-operating with those organisations in the development of a pilot scheme to increase the options available for drug dependents on release from prison.
