Notes:

(1) Accurate data are not available before 2002 due to double counting of seizures by police and customs reports.

(2) In 1995 the number of seizures based is on offences; since 1996 the number of seizures is based on police register.

(3) 1999 data include 1 seizure of liquid cocaine.

(4) Cocaine and crack are reported together (however, there are usually very few, if any, seizures of crack).

(5) 2003 data refer to England, Scotland and Wales only.

(6) Data refer to seizures made by customs and the National Service for Combating Organised Crime (NACOC) from the Ministry of Interior.

(7) Up to 2003 the number of large seizures only is reported; from 2004 all seizures are reported.
