Recommendation 32
32
Paragraph: 123
Drug strategy requires further action to prevent exploitation of children by county lines.
Conclusion
We welcome the 10-Year Drug Strategy’s commitment to rolling up county lines but increasing law enforcement efforts is only one part of the solution. We therefore welcome the strategy’s commitment to reducing demand for drugs and to re- building the drug treatment and recovery sector. We believe that these actions will play an important role in tackling county lines. However, we believe the Government could go further to prevent children and young people from becoming exploited by county lines.
