# The Misuse of Drugs (Amendment No.3) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2014, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulation)
These Regulations amend the Misuse of Drugs Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2002 in order to add Khat to Schedule 1 of those Regulations. The Schedule in which a controlled drug is placed primarily affects the extent to which the drug can be lawfully imported, exported, produced, supplied or possessed and dictates the record keeping, labelling and destruction requirements in relation to that drug.
