Abstract
An historical account is presented of the introduction and subsequent work of the Drug Advisory Service (DAS) of England and Wales since 1986. Data are presented from an analysis of the recommendations contained within the first 11 reports. The structural and operational strengths and weaknesses of the present approach are considered, and alternative approaches which might constitute constructive modifications or supplements to the present system are discussed.Keywords
