Default I'm looking for some drugs laws - NSW Australia

This is simply a request.

I want to know what the potential outcomes of being caught with marijuana and MDMA (Ecstasy...or general amphetamines as with pills you can never know without a test kit and even than it's a bit how you going) are.

Things like what quantity of each would have a person seen as a dealer, and just the general penalties of having this items on someone.

I can appreaciate that there is no real one answer but any guiding information I would really like to have.

Here is the appropriate statute: http://www.legislation.nsw.gov.au/summarize/inforce/s/1/?TITLE=%22Drug%20Misuse%20and%20Trafficking%20Act% 201985%20No%20226%22&nohits=y

Possession of a "small quantity" of any drug will result in a maximum prison sentence of two years, and/or a fine of up to $2,200


15 years and/or $220,000 fine for possession or supply of "indictable quantities", or the supply of smaller amounts.

10 years and/or $220,000 fine for possession or supply of indictable quantities of cannabis, or supply of smaller amounts.

20 years and/or $385,000 fine for possession or supply of "commercial quantities"

To find the rated quantities of the different drugs, see Schedule 1, which can be found at the bottom of the scroll bar when you click the link.


I hope this helps :)
