Committee to debate drug law issues

Ananova

Tuesday 06 Nov 2001

---

An all-party committee of MPs is to hear a range
of arguments in favour of softening laws on hard
and soft drugs.

The Home Affairs Select Committee is taking
evidence from witnesses who are pro-
legalisation and pro-decriminalisation.

The move is part of its inquiry into whether
the UK's drug laws are working.

At last week's session, Home Office officials
were rebuked by committee chairman Chris Mullin
MP for failing to address the idea of radical
measures such as across-the-board legalisation
in their evidence.

Today's witnesses are Danny Kushlick from drug
reform campaign group Transform, Guardian
journalist Nick Davies, Muzik magazine editor
Conor McNicholas, Liberty's Roger Warren Evans
and the Legalise Cannabis Alliance's Alun Buffry.
