Subjecting the new psychoactive substance N-phenyl-N-[1-(2-phenylethyl)piperidin-4-yl]furan-2-carboxamide (furanylfentanyl) to control measures

2017/0152(NLE)

The Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs adopted the report by Michal BONI (EPP, PL) on the draft Council implementing decision on subjecting N-phenyl-N-[1-(2phenylethyl)piperidin-4-yl]furan-2-carboxamide (furanylfentanyl) to control measures.

The committee recommended that Parliament approve the Council draft.

The available evidence and information on the health and social risks that the substance poses, given also its similarities with fentanyl, provide sufficient grounds for subjecting furanylfentanyl to control measures across the Union.
