Mr. Cousins: To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office if she will estimate (a) the numbers of deaths due to drug use and misuse,
(b) the numbers of injuries and finished consultant episodes related to drug use and misuse and (c) the direct costs of care,
treatment, investigation and damage caused by drug use and misuse in each year since 1995. [157835]
Marjorie Mowlam: The Office for National Statistics reports that the number of deaths due to drug misuse in 1999 was 2,943; this
figure includes deaths from illicit and licit drug use. The figures provided include deaths from drug dependence, non-dependent
abuse, accidents, suicides and homicide. The figures for previous years are as follows: 1998--2,922; 1997--2,858; 1996--2,721; and
1995--2,563. Figures in relation to the numbers of injuries and finished consultant episodes related to drug use and misuse are not
available as they are not collected centrally.
In terms of the direct costs of treatment of drug use and misuse, the only figures available are from the treatment strand of
expenditure from the Drug Action Team returns for 1998-99 and 1999-2000. The figure for 1998-99 was approximately £165.7 million and
the figure for 1999-2000 was approximately £151.8 million. Information on the indirect costs of the damage resulting from drug
misuse are unavailable as they are not collected centrally.

Mr. Ben Chapman: To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office if she will make a statement on the progress of the Government's
anti-drugs policy. [148784]
Mr. Ian McCartney: The Anti-Drugs Co-ordinator published his Annual Report for 1999-2000 on 7 November 2000.
The report shows that we are making progress towards meeting the challenging targets we have set as part of our 10-year anti-drugs
strategy. Most of our annual targets were met in full and we are on track to deliver published targets for 2002.
On the Wirral there has been considerable improvements in the treatment services available to drug users, including a significant
reduction in waiting lists for treatment. In recent months a needs assessment of the need of young people has been completed and a
plan of action is being developed to meet the gaps in provision identified in the report. People needing advice and other assistance
around their drugs use are likely to approach the Response Service based in Birkenhead, Wirral Drug Services, which includes a
specialist service for young people and/or the Wirral Solvent Misuse Project.

Mr. Paul Clark: To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office how much has been allocated for anti-drug treatment services in each of
the next three years. [148794]
Mr. Ian McCartney: The Government recognise that treatment services can have a vital role in reducing the damaging effects of drug
abuse on a person's health as well as reducing crime and anti-social behaviour.
Through the spending review we have allocated an additional £167 million for drug treatment services over three years from 2001-02.
The table gives the breakdown of spending in each of the next three years.

Mr. Borrow: To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office what assessment she has made of the impact on South Ribble of her
Department's policy to improve access to drug rehabilitation programmes. [148773]
Mr. Ian McCartney: The Arrest Referral Programme for South Ribble has been implemented since August 2000. Between August 2000 and
January 2001 a total of 230 individuals have been referred to local services under the Programme.
Chorley and South Ribble District Drug Service offer access to rehabilitation, and the South Ribble Drug Action Group is now in the
process of implementing a treatment programme. The money made available from the last spending review will increase service
capacity, GP shared care and child specific services within the area.
