9 Drug-related Crime, Prevention ofDrug-related Crime, and PrisonThe data for this chapter come from the Federal Ministries of the Interior and ofJustice, respectively, as well as from the court criminal statistics maintained byStatistics Austria. Other sources of information include the annual reports andevaluations of drug treatment and advice centres and the Addiction and Drug CoordinationOffices in the provinces. Further input comes from ST11 and SQ31 as wellas publications on prisons. The Narcotic Substances Act (SMG) plays an important roleas a basis for measures taken by prosecution authorities. The SMG distinguishesbetween narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and precursor substances, andspecifies which substance comes under which category. A distinction is also madebetween misdemeanours (illicit handling of drugs: Section 27 of the SMG) and felonies(preparation for drug trafficking: Section 28 of the SMG; as well as drug trafficking:Section 28a). Our report of 2008 (GÖG/ÖBIG 2008c) includes a detailed presentation ofthe amendment to the Narcotic Substances Act which entered into force on 1 January2008, and all the resulting changes.As explained in previous years and also stressed by the responsible Ministry of theInterior (BMI 2010), the data concerning reports of offences permit only limitedconclusions regarding the development of illicit drug use and misuse, because theyprimarily reflect the intensity and focus of police activity in this field.The number of reports to the police relating to violations of the SMG rose in 2009compared to the year before, and is at a level similar to 2002 and 2003. RegardingSMG-related convictions because of misdemeanours (violation of Section 27provisions) the decline showing since 2006 continued also in 2009, and convictionsbecause of felonies (Section 28 of the SMG) have also gone down since 2006, roughlyby 5% annually. In this context it should be noted that in the present report, the termfelony is used for all violations of Section 28 and Section 28a of the SMG, whereasoffences against Section 27 of the SMG are referred to as misdemeanours.9.1 Drug-related crimeIn 2009, the number of reported violations of the Narcotic Substances Act (SMG) was22 729 (2008: 20 043; see also Table A9 in Annex A and ST11), which is an increasecompared to the previous year. A total of 21 801 reports (2008: 19 080 reports)related to narcotic drugs and the rest to psychotropic substances. Regarding type ofreport (see Figure 9.1), in 2009, after a significant decline in the year before, anotherrise in the number of reports showed with regard to both misdemeanours (illicitChapter 9 / Drug-related Crime, Prevention of Drug-related Crime, and Prison 79
