• Global seizures: 3.8 tons
• Increasing seizures in East and South-East Asia (31 per cent), Oceania, Europe (seizures double)
• United States: increase in availability and use
• Indication of polydrug manufacture, “ecstasy” manufacturing in illicit methamphetamine laboratories
“Ecstasy” market recovers

The synthetic drugs challenge• Use: ATS use second only to cannabis, more ATS users
than cocaine and heroin users• Trafficking:
– Global ATS seizures have increased over past decades
– Steady expansion of methamphetamine market – Recovery of ecstasy – New psychoactive substances (bath salts)
• The unknown:– ATS manufacture? Psychoactive substances on
markets? Significant information gaps
