Drug-related acquisitive crime is a threat to communities, the police service and its partner agencies across the UK and Europe.

Enforcement approaches combined with effective drug treatment and education provision are having a major impact on reducing acquisitive crime.

Building on previous years, ACPO Drugs Conference 2005 will, for the first time, bring together our partners from across Europe to share good practice in this key area of Government strategy.

Determining the “winning formula” to reduce drug-related crime will be the key aim of the conference.
