  1. A small amendment was made to Section 2.2 'Number of police officers, staff and vehicles carrying naloxone' to correct an error in the reported number of police officers in England and Wales who carry naloxone day-to-day. The corrected figure reflects officers actively carrying naloxone, rather than those trained to do so.
