Abstract
The Advisory Council of the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) is an advisory, non departmental public body (NDPB) sponsored by the Home Office, established under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 (MDA).
It is the statutory duty of the ACMD under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 to keep under review the situation in the United Kingdom with respect to drugs, which are being or appear to be likely to be misused and of which the misuse is having or appears to be capable of having harmful effects sufficient to constitute a social problem. The ACMD is also a statutory consultee under the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016.
