We are developing a long-term strategy which will present our whole-of-government response to drive down drug supply and demand. This includes support for people through treatment and recovery, and an even tougher response to criminal supply chains and the demand that fuels these illegal markets.

We will publish this long-term strategy by the end of the year. This section of the initial response focuses on recommendations we can commit to now, ahead of this fuller response.
