Questions 1
Refer to the question, s25 of the TAFE Education Act 2002, there is an offence “ to bring heroin, cannabis, cocaine or any other drug onto a TAFE campus”. Before we look the part (a) and (b) of the question, let’s definite ‘any other drug’ first.
Drug is not considered as a food, however it can be taken or put into a human body have medical, intoxicating, performance enhancing or other effects. There is no single, precise definition for drug. Under control law, government regulations, medicine and colloquial usage there have different meanings about drug. Drug can be legal or illegal, depend on what you are using for.
For the part (a) of the question 1, Winnie is caught by a security guard as she is licking white aspirin powder. According the definition about aspirin in the Macquarie dictionary, we classify aspirin is a drug in this case; therefore Winnie does breach s25 of the TAFE Education Act 2002. She might guilty of the offence. However on the other thought, even she had aspirin powder with her and licking that in TAFE campus, where she get those aspirin powder? In S25 of the TAFE Education Act 2002, we notice the offence statement state that ‘bring’ and ‘drug trafficking’. Does Winnie bring these aspirin powder to the TAFE campus herself or she buy from someone else in the campus? Also, does she actually drug trafficking, selling the aspirin powder around the campus? In “Regina v Frank BERA [2001]NSWCCA 205 (24 may 2001)” case, the appellant pleaded guilty under [s25(2) of the Drug Misuse and Trafficking Act 1985], from this case we also understand the drug trafficking, the quantity of the drug should be consider as well, furthermore the evidence to prove that there have the relationship between the seller and the buyer. In this case law, the evidence would be the listening device tape recorded on the telephone of Les Kalache revealed a relationship for the supply of drugs between Parker, Kalache and the appellant. So refer back to the case,

    1.1 In October 2001 the Home Secretary asked the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (the ‘Council’) to review the classification of cannabis preparations in the light of current scientific evidence. The Council is established under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 to keep under review the drug situation in the United Kingdom and to advise government ministers on the measures to be taken for preventing the misuse of drugs or for dealing with the social problems connected with their misuse. In particular, the Council is required to advise on the appropriate classification of substances being specified under Part I, Part II, and Part III of Schedule 2 to the Act. The classification of drugs, in Schedule 2 to the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971, is based on the harm they may cause: Class A (the most harmful) includes morphine and diamorphine (heroin). Class B (an intermediate category) includes amphetamines, barbiturates, cannabis and cannabis resin. Class C (the least harmful) includes anabolic steroids, benzodiazepines and growth hormones. 1.4 When advising on the harmfulness of drugs, the Council takes account of the physical harm that they may cause, their pleasurable effects, associated withdrawal reactions after chronic use, and the harm that misuse may bring to families and society at large. The Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 (Statutory Instrument 2001/3998) defines the categories of people authorised to supply and possess drugs controlled under the Act. In these Regulations, drugs are categorised under five schedules: Schedule 1 includes drugs such as cannabis that are not, conventionally, used for medical purposes. Possession and supply are prohibited without specific Home Office approval. Schedule 2 includes morphine and diamorphine and are subject to special requirements relating to their…

    • 3 Pages

    To be punishable under Article 112a, possession, use, distribution, introduction, or manufacture of a controlled substance must be wrongful. Possession, use, distribution, introduction, or manufacture of a controlled substance is wrongful if it is without legal justification or authorization. Possession, distribution, introduction, or manufacture of a controlled substance is not wrongful if such act or acts are: (A) done pursuant to legitimate law enforcement activities (for example, an informant who receives drugs as part of an undercover operation is not in wrongful possession), (B) done by authorized personnel in the performance of medical duties; or (C) without knowledge of the contraband nature of the substance (for example, a person who possesses cocaine, but actually believes it to be sugar, is not guilty of wrongful possession of cocaine). Possession, use, distribution, introduction, or manufacture of a controlled substance may be inferred to be wrongful in the absence of evidence to the contrary. The burden of going forward with evidence with respect to any such exception in any court-martial or other proceeding under the code shall be upon the person claiming its benefit. If such an issue is raised by the evidence presented, then the burden of proof is upon the United States to establish that the use, possession, distribution, manufacture, or introduction was…
