Mr. Michael Jabez FosterTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what plans he has to target support in the fight against drugs on specific communities. [76675]
§ Mr. Bob AinsworthThe fight against drugs involves co-ordinated action to deal with the supply of drugs and drug-related crime, as well as strengthening communities to resist drugs, and providing treatment, harm minimisation and education services. Resources for all these services are targeted according to local needs, so they can target the drugs which do the most harm, problematic users and the most vulnerable sections of society. We will continue to review the way that the available money is allocated to ensure that it is easily accessible and reaches the areas where it can be most effective.
