Research Development & Statistics (RDS)

The Research Development and Statistics Directorate (RDS) is an integral part of the Home Office. Listed below are recent drug related (RDS) publications.

They provide information that helps Ministers and policy makers take evidence-based decisions, and also help the police, probation service, the courts and immigration officials to do their jobs as effectively as possible. They do so both by maintaining the various statistical services published by the Home Office and by carrying out research themselves or commissioning others to do so.

For more information on Research Development & Statistics (RDS) visit their what's new page at
http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/whatsnew1.html

A list of their drug publications can be viewed at: www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/drugs1.html#publications
