Anderton dragging his heels on party pills

Despite receiving a number of reports, Jim Anderton is still dragging his heels over the party pill issue, says National MP Jacqui Dean.

Today, the Associate Minister of Health announced he would be putting a paper to Cabinet on party pills 'in due course'.

"The Minister has already received expert information on the issue, yet he refuses to actually act.

"With party season approaching, Mr Anderton's inaction can only mean trouble.

"How long will it take for the Minster to do something about it?"
