Drug addicts 'given drugs rewards'

Cocaine and heroin addicts on a Government treatment programme are being given extra drugs as a reward for good behaviour, it is reported.

The BBC said a survey of almost 200 clinics in England by the National Treatment Agency (NTA), which runs the £500m-a-year treatment scheme, found users were being offered extra heroin substitute methadone or anti-depressants for clean urine samples.
