Notes:

(1) Accurate data are not available before 2002 due to double counting of seizures by police and customs reports.         

(2) Until 1995: number of seizures based on offences; since 1996: numbers of seizures based on police register.         

(3) Data refer to police seizures only; data include number of seizures of herbal cannabis, cannabis resin, cannabis plants and cannabis seeds.     

(4) Figures include cannabis seeds from 1985 to 1995 included.
