Brown wants tougher policy on cannabis布朗希望强硬的政策对大麻
By通过 Alan Travis 梁家杰特拉维斯 | Gordon Brown’s decision to overturn the advice of his own group of drug experts by pressing ahead with a tougher policy on cannabis could face a high court challenge from campaigners. |财政大臣布朗的决定推翻的意见，他自己的一批毒品专家出席会议提前一个强硬的政策对大麻可能会面临高等法院的挑战，从运动。
As the report from the 23-strong Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) recommending that cannabis should remain a class C drug was delivered yesterday to the home secretary, Jacqui Smith, it was widely reported that Gordon Brown would ignore its findings.正如该报告从23强的咨询会就滥用药物（ acmd ）建议，大麻应保持丙类药物是昨天发表的以民政司， jacqui史密斯，被广泛报导财政大臣布朗会忽视其研究结果。
“Whitehall sources” were reported as indicating that the prime minister would formally respond to their report after the local elections next week. “白厅来源”据报告，指出首相将正式回应他们的报告后，地方选举在下周。
“Mr Brown has made clear that, notwithstanding the scientific evidence, there are other considerations,” a Whitehall source was quoted as saying. “布朗先生已明确表示，尽管科学证据，还有其他的考虑， ”白厅来源被引述说。

“These include expressing concern about the involvement of serious crime in the cannabis trade and sending a signal, as a government and as a society, that this drug is a danger to health.” “这些措施包括，表示关心，参与的严重犯罪，在大麻的贸易和发出了一个信号，作为一个政府，和作为一个社会，这个药物是一种危害健康” 。
This is not the first time the prime minister has let his intentions be known over the issue of cannabis.这是不是第一次，总理已让他的意图被称为超过的问题，大麻。 When the home secretary asked the council to examine the legal status of cannabis for the third time in recent years, Smith had to write to the committee assuring its chairman, Sir Michael Rawlins, that ministers did not intend to pre-empt its findings.当英国内政大臣要求安理会审议的法律地位，大麻，为第三次在近年来，史密斯曾写信给该委员会保证委员会主席迈克尔rawlins ，部长们并没有打算先发制人其调查结果。
The Misuse of Drugs Act 1971, which established the current framework for controlling illegal drugs in Britain, placed a legal obligation on ministers to consult the ACMD before they make any changes under the legislation.滥用药物法， 1971年，建立了目前的框架，为控制非法毒品在英国，放置了一个法律义务部长征询acmd之前，他们作出任何改变，根据有关法例。
ACMD sources indicated yesterday that while council resignations are unlikely if Brown ignores their advice, it was possible that a legal challenge could be mounted by others. acmd来源表示，昨天表示，虽然会辞职是不可能，如果布朗漠视他们的意见，这是可能的是，法律上的挑战可采取由他人。 For a high court challenge to succeed, it would have to demonstrate that ministers took the decision without fully considering the ACMD’s report.对于高等法院的挑战，要取得成功，便要证明，部长们决定，没有充分考虑acmd的报告。 The repeated Downing Street briefings on Brown’s intentions could be expected to feature strongly in any such case.反复唐宁街介绍了布朗的意图可以预期的功能强烈在任何这种情况下。
At stake is the treatment handed out by the police to more than 100,000 people a year found in possession of cannabis.利害攸关的是治疗转交由警方以上十万人，每年发现藏有大麻。 Reported use has gone down since the drug was downgraded to class C by David Blunkett when he was home secretary in January 2004, and the police have had the power to confiscate the drug and issue an on-the-spot warning.报告使用已经减少由于毒品被降级，丙类由布伦基特当他回家司司长在2004年1月，警方已有权没收毒品和问题的一对-现场警告。
Last year police warnings on cannabis had soared by 20% to 120,000 a year, bringing many more cannabis users within the scope of police enforcement action.去年警方警告，大麻上升了20 ％至12.00万1年，使更多的大麻使用者的范围，警方的执法行动。 A decision to regrade the drug could actually backfire by leading to fewer users facing police action, as a decision to arrest them will be more time consuming.决定regrade药物实际上可能弄巧反拙，由领导，以较少的用户面临着警方的行动，作为一个决定逮捕他们将有更多的时间消费。
A decision to return cannabis to class B will again make possession an arrestable offence, which will mean the offender would be taken to the police station and could face prosecution with the possibility of a prison sentence in a few cases.决定返回大麻，以B级将再次使藏有可逮捕的罪行，这将意味着罪犯将被带返警署，并可能面临起诉的可能性在监狱服刑在少数情况下。
The ACMD held an unprecedented three-day meeting in February to consider concerns about links between the growing potency of the drug available on the streets and its potential mental health effects.该acmd举行了一次前所未有的为期3天的会议在2月考虑关注之间的联系日益效药物可在街道和其潜在的心理健康造成不良影响。 The experts heard evidence that 85% of what is available on the streets is herbal cannabis - two to three times stronger than the previously ubiquitous imported Moroccan cannabis resin.专家们听取了证据表明， 85 ％的什么是可在街道上是草本大麻-两到三倍强过以前无处不在进口摩洛哥的大麻树脂。
But they were also told that the incidence of new schizophrenia cases reported to GPs had gone down, not up, between 1998 and 2005, indicating a weak link between increased use and potency in the past two decades and mental health problems.但他们也说，发生新的精神分裂症患者举报的案件，以全球定位系统减少了，没有了，在1998年至2005年，这表明一个薄弱环节之间增加使用和效价在过去20年里和精神健康问题。 Some papers suggested that users are simply moderating their use of the higher potency cannabis.一些文件建议，用户只是放缓，其使用较高的效价大麻。
Chris Huhne of the Liberal Democrats said the government should stop playing politics and publish the ACMD report as soon as possible.克里斯huhne的自由民主党说，政府应立即停止玩弄政治和公布acmd报告尽快落实。 But the Conservatives back Brown, saying reclassification would not come a moment to soon.但保守派回到布朗说，改叙不会来的时刻很快。
