The Misuse of Drugs (Designation) (Amendment No.2) Order (Northern Ireland) 2010
Section 7(3) of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 requires regulations to be made to allow the use for medical purposes of the drugs which are subject to control under that Act. Section 7(3) does not apply to any drug designated by order under section 7(4) as a drug to which section 7(4) is to apply. This Order amends the Misuse of Drugs (Designation) Order (Northern Ireland) 2001 by inserting into Part 1 of the Schedule to that Order a further group of cathinone derivatives (including naphthylpyrovalerone, commonly known as naphyrone).
