Highlights
- The Norwegian government proposed a drug decriminalization reform.
- The shift from the justice sector to the health sector would only be partial.
- The police would retain their role in drug law enforcement after the reform.
- Illicit drug use continued to be fundamentally pathologized in the proposed reform.
- The most profound aspect of the reform was its emphasis on consent in interventions.
