Notes:

  Data were not available for the unlisted EU Member States.     

 A fuller historical series, back to 1985 for reporting countries, is available in the Supplementary tables section of this statistical bulletin.     

 (1) Accurate data are not available before 2002 due to double counting of seizures by police and customs reports.     

 (2) All seizures are included (police, coastguard and customs). 9 tablets of LSD were also seized in 1996, 1 in 1997, 2.5 in 1999, 17 in 2000 and 1 in 2001. 

 (3) 4 tablets of LSD were also seized in 1999; and 10 tablets and 1.1 kg were seized in 2000.     

 (4) 0.02 kg of liquid LSD were also seized in 2004.      

 (5) 4 bottles and 0.5 pills of LSD were also seized in 2004; and 1 bottle and 0.003 kg of LSD in 2005.     

 (6) 2.1 kg of LSD were also seized in 2001.     

 (7) Both 2004 and 2005 data are based on seizures made only by some police forces: they are not comparable between them, nor with previous years. 

 (8) Up until 2003 the amount of large seizures only is reported; from 2004 all seizures are reported.
