Biographical note
Under Brian Iddon's chairmanship, the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Drug Misuse launched an inquiry into the scale and nature of physical dependence and addiction to prescription-only and over-the-counter medicines in the UK. The study was facilitated by DrugScope. Gemma Reay, Parliamentary Researcher to Brian Iddon, assisted with the Inquiry and authored the final report. The Inquiry received evidence from across the healthcare, pharmaceutical and drug treatment sectors as well as from support groups and individuals with experience of addiction.
