answer text <p>We are fully aware of the dangers of the misuse of prescription drugs such as tranquilisers, and law enforcement authorities have a robust range of powers available to deal with those who engage in the diversion and illicit trade of such drugs, particularly where those drugs are controlled under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. Police forces use these powers to tackle the trade of such substances in their area, and action is also being taken to tackle illicit online sales. For instance, the Medicines Healthcare and Regulatory Products Agency works closely with Internet Service Providers to close down websites that are illicitly selling prescription drugs to UK consumers. In June 2013, the Agency and Border Force collaborated on Operation Pangea, an annual international initiative which in the UK led to the seizure of 3.7 million doses of unlicensed medicine worth approximately £12.2 million.<br><br>As well as cracking down on the illicit supply of prescription drugs, we are taking steps to increase our understanding of the problem. This is why in September 2013 the Home Secretary asked the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs to explore the potential for medical and social harms arising from the diversion and illicit supply of prescription drugs. I have asked that this work includes consideration of the prevalence of misuse, user demographics, and the most common drugs being misused. The Advisory Council is likely to report later in the year.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>

answer text <p> </p><p>As stated in my answer to the Honourable Member of 7 April 2014, Official <br>Report, column 112W, on 12 December 2013 I announced a review by an expert panel to look <br>at how the UK's response to new psychoactive substances, sometimes inaccurately <br>called ‘legal highs', can be enhanced beyond the existing measures. The expert panel includes <br>a senior policy adviser from the Local Government Association to inform the <br>work of the panel from a local government perspective, including whether <br>existing by-laws may be used to tackle this damaging trade. This work is <br>ongoing, and the panel is due to report its recommendations by the end of <br>spring 2014.<br><br>To support local authorities, the Home Office published guidance in December <br>2013 setting out the range of legislative tools local authorities can use to <br>tackle the 'head shops' where these substances are often sold. This was developed in <br>collaboration with the Department for Communities and Local Government, the <br>Local Government Association and the Trading Standards Institute and can be <br>found here: <br>https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/action-against-head-shops<br><br>The guidance covers offences head shops may be committing under the Misuse of <br>Drugs Act 1971, the Intoxicating Substances (Supply) Act 1985, and various <br>consumer protection regulations. <br><br>The Home Office has also provided targeted support to local authorities with <br>testing of new psychoactive substances through the Forensic Early Warning <br>System, to help them take action against the sale of these products by <br>identifying the contents.</p><p> </p>
