Drug Testing in Schools

Asked which Cabinet Minister’s the Prime Minister had discussed the proposals for random drug testing in schools, the PMOS said that the guidance was being drawn up by the Department for Education and Skills in consultation with the profession groups acting in the field and the police. This was not something which had dropped out of Downing Street from a clear blue sky one Sunday morning. It was something which DfES had been working on for some time. Asked if the Prime Minister would customarily discuss with the Department the fact that he was going to mention it in an interview, the PMOS said that the Department would certainly have been aware of what the Prime Minister had said.
