I think it's in response to all the new synthetic. Most drugs are listed as banned by their chemical composition. So when the chemists make a new drug e.g. syntheitc marijuana, "legal highs" or the dreaded bath salts they are not automatically illegal.

We've already got an analogue law, so yes, almost all the things you've listed there are automatically illegal at the discretion of the judiciary. A new law would achieve no new end save for grandstanding by its backers.

Regarding the psychoactive drugs laws that came up in the end of the last thread, does that clown not realise golden wattle contains DMT? It'd be pretty loving funny if they accidentally banned the national emblem.

Nope. (We've actually had that proposed before).
