European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction, & Europol. (2011). EMCDDA-Europol 2010 Annual Report on the implementation of Council Decision 2005/387/JHA : in accordance with Article 10 of Council Decision 2005/387/JHA on the information exchange, risk-assessment and control of new psychoactive substances (European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction, Ed.). Implementation reports. Lisbon: Office for Official Publications of the European Communities.
Abstract: This report presents the results and outlines the key achievements for 2010 on the information exchange, risk-assessment and control of new psychoactive substances. In 2010, 41 new psychoactive substances were officially notified for the first time in the European Union through the Early-Warning System (EWS). Of those, 15 were synthetic cathinones and 11 were synthetic cannabinoids. Substances belonging to more established chemical families were also reported – five phenethylamines, one tryptamine and one piperazine. The list of newly notified substances was rather diverse and also included a plant-based substance, a synthetic cocaine, a ketamine derivative, a phencyclidine derivative, an indane, a benzofuran, as well as a substance which can be seen as a designer medicine. The report also describes the increased availability of ’legal highs’ and the EMCDDA’s activities in monitoring the online shops selling these products, as well as the risk assessment of mephedrone, which was submitted to control measures and criminal penalties throughout the European Union.

Bern; Berne; Berna: Eidgenössische Alkoholverwaltung (EAV); Régie fédérale des alcools (RFA); Regìa federale degli alcool (RFA).
Abstract: Die Kantone erhalten 10 Prozent des Reinertrags aus der Besteuerung der gebrannten Wasser. Diese Mittel sind zur Bekämpfung der Ursachen und Wirkungen von Suchtproblemen zu verwenden. Der Anteil der Kantone ist zur Bekämpfung des Alkoholismus, des Suchtmittel-, Betäubungsmittel- und Medikamentenmissbrauchs in ihren Ursachen und Wirkungen zu verwenden. Die Kantone erstatten dem Bundesrat jährlich Bericht über die Verwendung ihres Anteils. Un dixième du produit net de l’impôt sur les boissons distillées est versé aux cantons. Ils utilisent ces fonds pour combattre les causes et les effets de l’abus de substances engendrant la dépendance. Les cantons sont tenus d’employer leur part pour combattre dans leurs causes et dans leurs effets l’alcoolisme, l’abus des stupéfiants et autres substances engendrant la dépendance ainsi que l’abus des médicaments. Les cantons présentent, chaque année, un rapport au Conseil fédéral sur cet emploi. Il 10 per cento del prodotto netto dell’imposizione delle bevande distillate è devoluto ai Cantoni. È impiegato per combattere, nelle sue cause e nei suoi effetti, l’abuso di sostanze che generano dipendenza. La parte spettante ai Cantoni dev’essere impiegata nella lotta contro l’alcolismo, l’abuso di stupefacenti o di altre sostanze che generano dipendenza e l’abuso di medicamenti, nelle loro cause e nei loro effetti. I Cantoni presentano ogni anno al Consiglio federale un rapporto sull’impiego della loro quota.

European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction. (2011). Guidelines for the treatment of drug dependence: a European perspective. Luxembourg: Publications Office of the European Union.
Abstract: The last two decades have witnessed an increase in the development of treatment guidelines in the European drugs field. This has largely built on a body of evidence on the treatment of drug dependence that has developed since the 1980s, alongside a growing interest in, and understanding of, the eff ectiveness of interventions. A range of tools became available to translate evidence into satisfactory and sustainable results, among them : guidelines and standards, education and training, implementation and assessment, monitoring, and accreditation systems based on quality standards. The focus of this Selected issue is drug dependence treatment guidelines – one of the main measures used to improve and guarantee the quality of drug treatment provision. The focus on drug dependence treatment is timely and appropriate, as current estimates suggest that at least 1.1 million people were treated for illicit drug use in the European Union, Croatia, Turkey and Norway during 2009 (1). This is the consequence of a major expansion of specialised outpatient services during the last twenty years, with the significant inclusion of primary healthcare, self-help groups, general mental health services, and outreach and low-threshold service providers. While more than half of clients received opioid substitution treatment, a substantial number received other forms of treatment for problems related to opioids, stimulants, cannabis and other illicit drugs. The main modalities used for the treatment of drug problems in Europe are opioid substitution, detoxification and psychosocial interventions. Drug dependence treatment services are provided in a variety of settings: specialised treatment units (including outpatient and inpatient centres), mental health clinics and hospitals, units in prison, lowthreshold agencies and by offi ce-based general practitioners. Particularly in western Europe, there appears to have been a gradual shift away from a view of drug dependence treatment as the responsibility of a few specialist disciplines providing intensive, short-term interventions towards a multidisciplinary, integrated and longer-term approach. Evidence suggests that continuous care and integrated treatment responses may be aided by the development and use of guidelines, care protocols and case management by all the relevant service providers (Haggerty et al., 2003). This publication sets out to introduce the topic of treatment quality improvement by the development of guidelines (and other documents), and to provide an overview of the existing national guidelines for the treatment of drug dependence in Europe.
