(1)  Seizures from joint operations involving HM Revenue and Customs and the police are generally recorded against HM Revenue and Customs (covered separately in Table S4).
(2)  As a seizure can involve more than one drug, figures for individual drugs cannot be added together to produce totals.
(3)  Drugs are seized in a variety of forms and where possible, for the purpose of this table, amounts are converted to weights (kg).  Seizures of unspecified quantities are not included.
(4) In 1997 Northern Constabulary reported a seizure of 32,891 cannabis plants, while in 1998 Strathclyde reported seizing 51,455 cannabis plants.
