Local areas already have an important role to play in tackling drugs and reducing harms through Combatting Drugs Partnerships which operate in all areas of England. There are examples of effective work by mayors and councils, working with policing, health, housing and employment agencies locally that show the value of the contribution being made by local partnerships.
