Request for feedback on
the draft Local Approved Product Policy
|
|
|
Resolution number FR/2014/174
MOVED by Member MA Kay,
seconded by Member BS Crompton:
That the Franklin Local Board provides the following feedback on the draft Local Approved
Product Policy:
i)
The Franklin Local Board is very concerned
at the use of deprivation as criteria, on the basis it assumes or suggests
communities with a higher deprivation index are more predisposed to using
psychoactive substances, and that it may drive the problem into areas where
there is greater ability to purchase such substances.
ii)
The Franklin Local Board supports the
use of age to define the different types of schools used in the policy.
iii)
The Franklin Local Board supports the
increase in the buffer zone from 300m to 500m radius of schools teaching
students year seven and above where approved products cannot be sold.
iv)
The Franklin Local Board supports the
increase in the buffer zone from 100m to 200m radius of schools teaching
students between years one and six inclusive.
v)
The Franklin Local Board supports the
500m buffer zone around an existing psychoactive substances retail licence.
vi)
The Franklin Local Board reiterates
that buffer zones for kindergartens and open spaces should also be included
in the policy, particularly areas with children’s playgrounds, as these will
be used by vulnerable children.
