Summary
This paper provides a description of a model performance measurement framework for drug law enforcement (DLE) in Australia that was developed in an attempted to redress some of the evident limitations of the current systems available in Australia. The framework's development formed a major component of a research project undertaken by the Australian Institute of Criminology on behalf of Australia's National Drug Enforcement Research Fund to provide better, appropriate and meaningful information that could inform the most effective interventions within DLE in Australia.
