ADLRF AGM – November 2009

The ADLRF AGM will be held in November. To vote at the AGM you must be a member, if you haven’t joined or renewed, you can do that now.

In October 2009, the ADLRF will be hosting a series of free public lectures and talks by Dr Norm Stamper.

Dr Stamper is coming to Australia in October as a representative of the USA organisation LEAP (Law Enforcement Against Prohibition).

Dr Stamper is a proponent of drug law reform and argues that the US “war on drugs” simply has not worked. He believes that the billions of dollars being wasted on the justice system could be better spent on improving health and social interventions to ameliorate drug problems. Dr Stamper is the author of “Breaking Rank: A Top Cop’s Exposé of the Dark Side of American Policing”.

Come along to one of these events to hear what he has to say.
