Notes: For definitions of reports for drug law offences, please refer to [Methods and definitions - drug law offences] in this statistical bulletin. (1) The law only distinguishes between small and large quantities. Thus cases of possession and small-scale trafficking have been considered as 'use/possession for use'. (2) Among all drug offences in 1998 and 1999; among main drug offences from 2000. (3) Based on number of offences considered as main offences. (4) Among all drug offences - several different drug offences may be involved in one case. (5) Since July 2001, drug use/possession for use is not a criminal offence anymore and thus not considered here. In consequence, the proportion has decreased in 2001 and the series has stopped since then. (6) In 1998 and 1999 there is some double-counting as persons reported for two offences were counted twice in the total. From 2000 onwards, only the main offence is counted. However, a person could be counted several times if arrested several times during the same year. Since 2003 each offence is represented as one separate record in the database.
