Notes: For definitions of reports for drug law offences, please refer to [Methods and definitions - drug law offences] in this statistical bulletin. (1) Based on number of mentions of cocaine among all drug mentions, whether alone or with other drugs. (2) Based on number of offences with cocaine as main drug. (3) Among all offences broken down by drug (for some offences, a breakdown by drug is not available). (4) Among offences for drug dealing/trafficking (since offences for drug use/possession for use are not criminalised); for Portugal, only since 2002. (5) Underestimated proportion since it represents offences for cocaine only - it does not include offences for 'cocaine with other drug(s)'. (6) Among persons given a summary fine by the prosecutor or sentenced by a court. (7) In 1998 and 1999 there is some double-counting as persons reported for two offences were counted twice in the total. From 2000 onwards, only the main offence is counted. However, a person could be counted several times if arrested several times during the same year. Since 2003 each offence is represented as one separate record in the database.
