EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations insert 4–methylmethcathinone (commonly referred to as mephedrone) and other cathinone derivatives into Schedule 1 to the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 (“the 2001 Regulations”). The schedule in which a controlled drug is placed primarily affects the extent to which the drug can be lawfully imported, exported, produced, supplied or possessed and dictates the record keeping, labelling and destruction requirements in relation to that drug.

(1)

1971 c. 38 as modified by the Northern Ireland Act 1998 (c. 47). Section 22 has been amended by section 177(1) of, and paragraph 12 of Schedule 4 to, the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 (c. 2).
