Notes:

 ca = circa.     

 (1) In 2002 seizures of cannabis product cannot be broken down by product; 57115 kg were seized in 2002.      

 (2) Over the period 2000-2003, data were reported in kg and included seizures of both herbal cannabis and cannabis plants (data are reported in Table SZR-04). In 2009 data was available on the total number of plants seized, while in previous years the number was not available, as only a representative sample was included. This change is likely to affect comparability across time.   

 (3) 43 cannabis seeds were also seized in 2003; and 2281 in 2004.     

 (4) In 2006, data include plants and seedlings.     

 (5) Over the period 2002-2005, data were reported in kg and included seizures of both herbal cannabis and cannabis plants (data are reported in Table SZR-04).   

 (6) Since 2007 data for Scotland are not available, see Table SZR-00 part (ii)
