Funds to support DOH proposals
Sufficient funds should be made available to support the Department of Health’s proposals.
The new Department of Health guidance has been introduced subject to the proviso that it:
 
‘describes how clinical services for the management of substance misusers in prison should develop during the next two years as increasing resources permit [italics added]’.

The cut, reported in December 2006, in the budget allocated to the new Integrated Drug Treatment System for prisons seems likely to delay these highly desirable changes.
