Decriminalisation:A New Direction for Drugs Policy?Is there a difference between decriminalisation and legalisation?YES.By decriminalising drugs, a person found in possession of drugs for personal use would not be given a criminal conviction.Instead, depending on the circumstance they could be given a warning, a fine or be directed to drug awareness classes or to drug treatment, etc.However, in cases where a person was found to be selling or importing drugs, or engaged in theft, assault, intimidation, smuggling, trafficking or dealing etc they would still be prosecuted under the criminal justice system.This is entirely different to the concept of 'legalising' drugs, where using, buying, importing and selling drugs would be regulated by the state in the same way as alcohol and tobacco.1.
