The new Police Methamphetamine Control Strategy will assist police to break supply chains, reduce methamphetamine-related crime, and seize the profits and assets made through P dealing. The police will be cracking down on gangs through extra intelligence, working with the Customs Service, and targeting P cooks. All areas of policing will be targeting manufacturers and dealers of P, including road policing, general duties, the Criminal Investigation Branch, community constables, and Youth Aid.
