Australia's National Drug Strategy beyond 2009: consultation paper
A coordinated, integrated approach
A number of sub-strategies have been developed under the umbrella of the National Drug Strategy with the aim of ensuring consistency and integration with issue specific tailoring, where appropriate, across a diverse range of issues covered by the Strategy. These sub-strategies currently include:
- The National Tobacco Strategy 2004–2009
- The National Alcohol Strategy 2006–2011
- The National Cannabis Strategy 2006–2011
- The NDS Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Complementary Action Plan 2003-2009
- The National School Drug Education Strategy
- The National Strategy to Prevent the Diversion of Precursor Chemicals into Illicit Drug Manufacture
- The National Amphetamine Type Stimulant Strategy 2008-2011; and
- The National Corrections Drug Strategy 2006-2009
Equally, there are a number of strategies outside the drug and alcohol sector (eg. the National Hepatitis C and National HIV/AIDS Strategies, the National Mental Health Strategy) that the National Drug Strategy should desirably connect with.
