§ Mr. FlynnTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what procedures are followed for the collation of the NCIS UK drugs prices list. [36483]
§ Mr. MichaelThe information in the Drug Prices Guide was collated from material supplied by dedicated points in 16 police forces in England, Wales and Scotland and by Her Majesty's Customs and Excise. The guide is intended to provide information that can be used by law enforcement officers who need to give expert witness in court on drug prices. It also provides general intelligence on price trends. As various factors are likely to affect prices locally, it should be seen only as a rough guide.
