Advocates for drug decriminalisation say current drug laws in Australia are not making the community safer, and prevent people seeking help for drug addiction.

The recommendation echoes others made earlier this year by the United Nations to end criminalisation and treat drug use and addiction as a health and social issue rather than a criminal one.
