The Effective National Drug Control Strategy 1999
An alternative harm reduction viewpoint, "The Effective National Drug Control Strategy", prepared by the Network of Reform Groups, is based on empirical evidence and studies which show that the policies recommended will be effective. It explicitly recommends that 2/3 of the entire drug control budget should be allocated for drug treatment and prevention. There are two main goals of the Effective National Drug Control Strategy: 1) reduce the harm caused by drug abuse and 2) reduce the harm caused by existing drug control policies. Within these two main goals there are a number of objectives. The broad thrust of the Effective Strategy is to move from a law enforcement-dominated strategy to a public health-based strategy.
