HC Deb 30 October 2001 vol 373 c598W
13. Mr. Brady

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what recent discussions he has had with coalition partners relating to the international traffic in illegal drugs. [8797]

Mr. Bradshaw

Our coalition partners are aware that Afghanistan has for many years been the source of nearly all the heroin reaching the streets in Britain and Europe.

On 11 October representatives of the main donor countries to the United Nations International Drugs Control Programme and of countries close to Afghanistan met in Vienna to discuss Afghan drugs issues.
