Drugs: Crime
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they plan to require the Director of Public Prosecutions to produce guidance as to the circumstances under which possession of a psychoactive substance amounts to a possible offence of supplying or offering to supply under clause 5 of the Psychoactive Substances Bill.

Under section 10 of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 it is the responsibility of the Director of Public Prosecutions to issue guidance for Crown Prosecutors. We have worked closely with a range of partners, including the Crown Prosecution Service, in the course of the drafting of the Psychoactive Substances Bill and will continue to do so to ensure that the Bill is effectively implemented.

Lord Bates
