Part (i) Indexed trend in the EU-15 Member States and Norway 1990-2008

Notes:

Index: 1990 = 100. Numbers of cases per country per year are presented in Table DRD-2 part (i) and Table DRD-2 part (v) in the Statistical bulletin 2011.

Belgium did not provide data for 2000–2003 and 2005-2008, Denmark 2002–04, Ireland 1990-1997, Spain and the United Kingdom 1990–93. A computation method, defined by the EMCDDA (2001), has been used to make corrections for this situation.
