Definition: This block contains a wide variety of disorders that differ in severity and clinical form but that are all attributable to the use of one or more psychoactive substances, which may or may not have been medically prescribed. The third character of the code identifies the substance involved, and the fourth character specifies the clinical state.

Regulation (EU) No 1024/2013 vested the ECB with some supervisory tasks and entitled the latter to impose on the credit institutions it supervises: (a) administrative pecuniary penalties when these institutions breach a requirement under directly applicable Union law in relation to which administrative pecuniary sanctions shall be made available to competent authorities under the relevant Union law; and (b) sanctions in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 2532/98 in case of a breach of ECB regulations or decisions (hereinafter jointly ...[+++] referred to as ‘administrative penalties’).

It is well known through research in the last few years, as well as some of the recommendations that have been talked about with regard to impaired driving, that with some of those administrative sanctions — we are not talking about criminal sanctions here — we are talking about administrative provincial sanctions when it comes to impaired driving, where individuals have their driver's licence suspended even before conviction.

The issue of sanctions was also addressed by the survey, and 62% of those surveyed felt that current penalties are too lenient, although provincial administrative sanctions, such as administrative licence suspensions, impoundment of motor vehicles, and compulsory assessment and rehabilitation for first offenders, were viewed as effective countermeasures.
