What is the current legal status ?
Is it still legal for personal use but not for selling? thesite.org states that it is illegal for sale, depsite there being 100s of sites openly selling it.
thanks in adv.

any ideas on the questions?
But - and this is the big issue. The government has withdrawn all of the BZP containing pills from the market because there was a possibility that they were illegal - but I havent actually heard whether they have made a judgement.
I am reasonably sure it isnt covered by the Misuse of Drugs Act, although it could have been added during the last tinkering with that document.
On the Home Office website there is a list of all the drugs which are currently illegal, that would be the best place to get a definitive answer.
Class A Ecstasy, LSD, heroin, cocaine, crack, magic mushrooms, amphetamines (if prepared for injection).
Class B Amphetamines, Methylphenidate (Ritalin), Pholcodine.
Class C Cannabis, tranquilisers, some painkillers, Gamma hydroxybutyrate (GHB), Ketamine.
thats from wikpedia and it isnt listed on the home office site.
Hi all,
Just digging into some research on this and the current legal status of BZP appears to be unclassified. Last year an evaluation of the drug was forwarded to the EU Council for review:
‘The European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) is undertaking a European-wide risk assessment of BZP for the EU Commission. The Commission will then present either a legislative proposal to the EU Council for the substance to be subjected to control measures or an explanation of why it considers control measures would not be appropriate.’
From the same document:
‘It was noted that New Zealand brought BZP under control of their Misuse of Drugs Act (which has a similar tripartite classification system to the UK) in 2005 by creating a new class – Class D. This was a pending class, enabling BZP to be sold under various licensing conditions including restrictions on age of purchase. Its classification is currently under review.’
Source: Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (May 2007)
However, the EMCDDA has recently produced a document which came to a decision on its classification. It defined BZP as:
‘… a new psychoactive substance which is to be made subject to control measures and criminal provisions. The Member States have one year to take the necessary measures, in accordance with their national law, to submit BZP to control measures, proportionate to the risks of the substance, and criminal penalties.’
