If the Board was relying on the power to
classify publications dealing with "drug addiction ", it is doubtful whether that phrase would
cover, for example, newspapers concerned with the use of cannabis.

But I think what
shouldn't be missed here is the fact that, while we have a medicinal product that we are taking
through the medicinal route, as we have in the UK, the 500,000 people in Australia broadly using
electronic cigarettes today are using electronic cigarettes that are not those.

Illicit drug use has decreased
from 14.2% in 2010 to 10.8% in 20166, with a similar decrease in Cannabis use, from 12% in 2010 to
5.9% in 2016.7
Despite this positive trend, children and young people in contact with me continue to express a
range of concerns regarding the use of drugs and alcohol, as well as the support options that exist
for them, their peers, family and community.

We have had some minor cannabis expiation notices, but the bulk of it is what we
call 'residual admits', so people have taken drugs within the last 24 hours or so, so that odour is still
on them, but they don't have anything on them at the time.
