This is the report of the Alcohol and Drugs Delivery Reform Group. In January 2008 the Delivery Reform Group to improve alcohol and drug delivery arrangements and ensure better outcomes for service users was established by the Scottish Government. Members were invited from the Scottish Advisory Committee on Drug Misuse (SACDM) and the Scottish Ministerial Advisory Committee on Alcohol Problems (SMACAP).
The Group was asked to develop proposals for improving delivery arrangements, taking account of the following: the Concordat between the Scottish Government and CoSLA, and the introduction of Single Outcome Agreements, the publication of the Stocktake Review of Alcohol and Drug Action Teams; and the parallel development of new drugs and alcohol misuse strategies.
