These Regulations amend the Misuse of Drugs (Safe Custody) Regulations 1973 by substituting a new Schedule 1 (which specifies those drugs which are exempted from the requirements of the Regulations). The only change of substance is the addition of fenethylline (when in the form of a liquid preparation designed for administration otherwise than by injection) and cathine.
