European countries use legal or judicial means to grade the severity of a drug-related offence. Frequently this is determined by the quantity of drugs involved in the case, which can set the threshold between different levels of offence or punishment. To summarise this information and facilitate comparison between national legal limits, the EMCDDA has recently published these quantities in a new 'Topic overview' in its European Legal Database on Drugs (ELDD).
