National statistics update
NDTMS pre-release statistics will be re-instated with effect from 3rd December 2015 to coincide with the release of the NDTMS adult and young people national statistics. The adult national statistics publication brings together for the first time information on individuals receiving specialist interventions for both drugs and alcohol. These services are increasingly commissioned together as many people experience problems and receive interventions for both. In line with this change, NDTMS pre-release statistics will report data for adults using this new methodology. More detailed information on these changes can be found here (http://www.nta.nhs.uk/new-reporting-methodology.aspx)
National statistics for young people and the previously reported young people pre-release statistics remains unchanged and will be reinstated using the existing methodology but additionally presented by PHE centre. The Public Health Outcomes Framework Indicators 2.15i and 2.15ii will also be reinstated with the existing methodology.

- Numbers in treatment – The number of individuals who accessed specialist treatment in a rolling 12 month period.
