AB The general public, police, service providers, and users/ex-users were
asked their views about options for trial design and trial outcomes with
regard to a proposal for experimental controlled heroin availability.
There was substantial agreement between the samples on issues concerning
trial design. In general, the samples from the community, service
providers and users/ex-users were more likely to report that a trial
would result in positive outcomes, whereas the police sample was more
likely to report that a trial would result in negative outcomes. This
study illustrates the value of systematic consultation of key groups in
exploring the options for change, raising potential difficulties, and
highlighting different interests.
