19 synthetic drugs banned nationally

Posted: Published on June 15th, 2013

The federal government is imposing an interim national ban on 19 synthetic drugs after Sydney teenager Henry Kwan took an LSD-like drug and fell to his death. The ban will prohibit the sale and supply of the drugs for 120 days, giving state and territories time to update their legislation and outlaw synthetic drugs. "Synthetic drugs are dangerous substances that can kill and should not be available for sale," minister assisting for deregulation David Bradbury said. "The synthetic drugs market is fast-moving and suppliers have shown they are willing to change brand names and packaging to get around bans made under consumer laws." He called on the state and territory governments to conduct an urgent review of their drug laws to make sure that synthetic drugs "are not falling through the cracks". Synthetic drugs were banned in NSW earlier this month following the death of 17-year-old Henry Kwan, who plunged from a balcony thinking he could fly after taking a synthetic form of LSD bought on the internet. Henry was farewelled in a Sydney funeral on Saturday. AAP See the article here: 19 synthetic drugs banned nationally … Continue reading

Our (not so) tough stand on drugs

Posted: Published on June 14th, 2013

Busted, kinda: The Voice coach and US rocker Joel Madden. There was outrage and confected outrage, but mostly there was mirth. ''Joel Madden proves that in Australia the grass really is greener!,'' tweeted one wag. ''I think it's pretty obvious the weed belonged to Joel Madden's hairdresser,'' quipped another. Not even the police could summon much enthusiasm over the discovery of a small amount of cannabis in Madden's hotel room when they were alerted to it on Sunday afternoon. They took six hours to turn up and then let The Voice judge off with a caution. Among Madden's co-judges and the public at large, more scorn was heaped on the media for sensationalism than it was upon the Good Charlotte frontman. It was a far cry from the drug scandals of the 1970s, when the rock'n'roll stars who were busted got really busted - arrested, deported, banned from venues and gloriously disgraced. Cannabis : Creeping towards decriminalisation. But the trivial treatment of the nadir in Madden's criminal history was a sign of the times. Though it is not politic to say so, a gentle trend towards the decriminalisation of marijuana has been creeping across Australia for the past 15 years. … Continue reading

Britain ignored my warnings, says Indian whistleblower at heart of drugs scandal

Posted: Published on June 14th, 2013

A few weeks after it was first contacted, the US regulator began an investigation based on the information given by Mr Thakur, who later became an official whistleblower. The FDAs investigations led to seven charges against Ranbaxy of selling improperly prepared drugs, failing to report that its drugs did not meet specifications and providing false information. Ranbaxy last month agreed to pay $500million (330 million) in fines and penalties, the largest financial settlement against a generic drug-producing company in the US. Mr Thakurs evidence was deemed so valuable by the US authorities that he was paid 37million under whistleblowing laws. In light of Ranbaxys admission of guilt in the US, the MHRA said it was now considering further investigation of the past conduct of the company, which is Indias largest drugs manufacturer with sales last year of 1.5billion in Britain, Europe and the US. According to Mr Thakurs emails, officials at the British regulator did not respond proactively to his approaches. In November 2005, he wrote: The reason I am writing to you is to alert you that Ranbaxy is defrauding the UK government and the British public and hoping that [you] would be able to do something to stop … Continue reading
