Résumé :
The Update reports various synthetic drug information such as significant or unusual drug or precursor chemical seizures, new locations, methods and chemicals used in illicit manufacture, new trafficking groups or routes, changes in legislation to address the problem of synthetic drugs, environmental impact from their illicit manufacture and destruction, emerging drugs, and health implications related to their use.
The special segment of the current issue provides a brief overview of the mechanisms provided under the international drug control conventions to place new substances under international control, as well as an overview of the several legislative/regulatory approaches that have been taken so far to regulate the unauthorized supply and distribution of new psychoactive substances at the regional and national level. This includes the use of analogue and generic legislation, the use of temporary bans and rapid procedures, specific new psychoactive substances legislation and the use of other rather limited regulatory frameworks. It also highlights the UNODC Early Warning Advisory on new psychoactive substances, as an international initiative that has been put in place, pursuant to Commission on Narcotic Drugs resolution 56/4, to monitor new psychoactive substances at the global level. This constitutes the first step in informing the process of control of new psychoactive substances at the international level.
