(1) Seizures from joint operations involving HM Revenue and Customs and the police are generally recorded against HM Revenue and Customs.
(2) Drugs are seized in a variety of forms but where possible, for the purpose of this table, amounts have been converted to weights (kg). Seizures of LSD and MDMA are given in doses.
Seizures of unspecified quantities are not included. Less than 50 grams dextromoramide and dipipanone were seized in each year.
(3) As a seizure can involve more than one drug, figures for individual drugs cannot be added together to produce totals.
(4) Thousands of doses.
(5) MDMA up until 1995.
