Support for the decriminalisation of the possession of drugs for personal use is split almost half and half among the national population, according to a new survey carried out by Red C for Citywide, Drugs Crisis Campaign. Forty-nine percent of people are in favour of changing the law to allow for decriminalisation while 51% are not.
