The NTA is proposing a number changes to the content and format of the annual National Drug Treatment Monitoring System (NDTMS) statistics report for 2010/2011. These are set out here.

We would welcome comments and responses from the treatment sector. 

It is important to note that this exercise does not require any additional data collection by treatment providers. It is intended to ensure that the statistics report meets the needs of the Drug Strategy 2010 and the government's commitment to ensuring all statistics are transparent and accessible.    

Respondents are invited to save this separate pro forma to their computer; fill it in and send it electronically to the email address nta.enquiries@nta-nhs.org.uk by 5 pm Wednesday 7th September.

If you have enquiries about this process please contact the NTA information manager Malcolm Roxburgh: malcolm.roxburgh@nta-nhs.org.uk
