Mrs. Ann Winterton: To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office how many programmes to educate young people in the dangers of illegal
drugs have been initiated since 15 October 1997. [58856]
Dr. Jack Cunningham: The Government have continued to support a range of existing drug education programmes through, for example,
the Department of Health's contract with the Health Education Authority, the Department for Education and Employment's Standards
Fund and the Home Office Drugs Prevention initiative.
The Government published their 10 year anti-drugs strategy in April following a review of all action to tackle drug misuse by the UK
Anti-Drugs Co-ordinator. Education is an essential part, and all future anti-drugs activity and expenditure by the Government is
being developed in accordance with this strategy. A total of £19.5 million per year will help to support the development of
effective programmes across the country.

Mr. Flynn: To ask the President of the Council how many and what percentage of those aged under 25 years she estimates have used (a)
cannabis, (b) ecstasy, (c) heroin and (d) cocaine. [41611]
Mrs. Ann Taylor: The British Crime Survey gives estimates of drug use amongst people aged 16 to 24 living in private households in
England and Wales. The most recent estimates are from the 1996 survey, when 39 per cent. of people in this age group said they had
used cannabis at some time. 11 per cent. had used ecstasy; 1 per cent. had used heroin; and 4 per cent. had used cocaine.
The estimates of heroin, cocaine and ecstasy use should be treated with great caution, partly because they are subject to very large
sampling error, and partly because a household survey such as the BCS is likely to under-represent current users.
The table gives the range, together with the mid-point estimate. The estimates for cannabis use are fairly precise, while those for
the other drug are not.
