Paragraph: 171
Replicate Scotland’s medication-assisted treatment standards in England to ensure consistent minimum care.
Recommendation
We recommend that the Government replicate Scotland’s medication-assisted treatment standards in England to ensure that a consistent, minimum standard of care is available to people accessing opioid substitution treatment. In doing so, the 78 Drugs Government must first consult stakeholders in the medical and drug treatment and recovery sectors on adapting opioid substitution treatment standards in a manner appropriate to England.
