- Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Wednesday, 28 November 2018
As an amendment to S5M-14914 in the name of Miles Briggs (New Approach Needed to Tackle Scotland’s Drugs Crisis), leave out from "drug-related" to end and insert "public health crisis related to the harm associated with the use of opiates and/or benzodiazepines and other drugs; further recognises that the harm has increased since 2007, with 934 fatalities recorded in 2017; believes that Scotland needs a drug and alcohol strategy founded on the principles of rights, recovery and respect, and which places public health at its heart and does not stigmatise those seeking recovery or harm reduction, and calls on the UK Government to make the necessary changes to the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 to allow the creation of a medically supervised safe consumption facility in Glasgow, or empower the Scottish Parliament to do so."
