Teenagers have been given advice on how to use the drug speed, during a NSW Government sponsored program.
Among the tips in a 35 page booklet, is to find a regular dealer and if using a new batch of the drug, to try a little at first.
It also said to make sure you leave time to 'come down' so the drug use didn't interfere with school and work.
The booklet named 'A users guide to speed,' is alleged to have been distributed by independent body, the National Drugs and Alcohol Research Council (NDARC).
The state government insists they had nothing to do with it, and they are investigating the incident.
NSW Health Minister John Della Bosca has told 2GB’s Alan Jones he's disappointed it's been handed out, but insists the Government isn't to blame.
“It certainly doesn’t convey our views… its distribution is unauthorised, certainly not in keeping in the spirit of the event which I think overwhelmingly was an event which was highly successful in communicating appropriate messages about drug and alcohol use.”
The booklet is believed to have been distributed to over 100 year eight students and parents who attended the anti-drug program near Newcastle over a week ago.
