How could we ensure that a drug as dangerous and harmful as Mephedrone gets banned as soon as possible? The ideal solution would be to have to EU agency to outlaw this drug with immediate effect and they can do alongwith presenting a report that shows all the possible health risks involved with the use of the drug. This report could also be used in the form of a blue print by the ACMD once their group has been built in order to speed up the banning process. But, before any of these news laws could be added into the law there is going to be a wait of at least six months.
Apart from this, there is also the general election which is around the corner and this might result in a change of government policy and since there is not enough time to complete the entire process before the election, the only option is to wait for a substantial amount of time until the new government is formed and their policy’s are clear and only after this is the ban on Mephedrone going to have any importance in the eyes of the government.
