Notes:
Data are from the most recent national surveys available in each country (see [Table GPS-4] in the 2005 statistical bulletin).
Some countries use a slightly different age range to the EMCDDA standard age range for young adults. Variations in age ranges may to a small extent account for disparities between countries.
