To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the total number of convictions during the last 10 years for the unlicensed sale of anabolic steroids under the Medicines Act.

In the last 10 years there have been four convictions under the Medicines Act for the illegal sale or supply of anabolic steroids. One conviction involved three separate charges.
