Illicit drug seizures have increased over the last decade and are almost 70 per cent higher than in 1999–2000 according to this statistical overview of recent illicit drug arrests and seizures.

The report also profiles the current situation, national impact and the emerging trends and threats of illicit drugs in Australia.

The Illicit Drug Data Report is produced by the Australian Crime Commission (ACC) and is recognised as one of the most valuable tools for law enforcement agencies, policy and decision makers, research bodies and other stakeholders in combating illicit drugs.
