The application of restrictive public health measures because of COVID-19 has affected all areas of life, including drug use, drug market, and the response of law enforcement and health, education, and social care institutions to the drug phenomenon. In Lithuania students who used psychoactive substances irregularly were more likely to reduce the use of these substances or abstained during quarantine. However, those who used these substances regularly increased the use during quarantine. The provision of harm reduction services was not interrupted, but the package of health services was reduced. There were disruptions in the number of clients entering treatment. Participation in the Early Intervention Programme in Lithuania for young people who are experimenting with alcohol or drugs increased but did not reach the pre-pandemic level. The pandemic also affected workplace-based prevention. The drug market situation remained stable, although the number of the quantities seized indicated some annual variations, caused by changes in supply and demand during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of COVID-19 on the prevalence of substance use. Moreover, the analysis will focus on the impact of the pandemic on the drug market and drug-related crime in Poland. The tested hypothesis assumes that the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the prevalence of substance use and the related problems, and that the availability of drugs decreased. The data presented and processed for the purposes of this publication come from the monitoring of drugs and drug addiction and from different studies from 2020 to 2022. The analyses presented in the article do not show an increase in the use of psychoactive substances during the pandemic; furthermore, it is possible to indicate a decrease in the consumption of alcoholic beverages in 2020. It seems that the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a large impact on the availability and use of new psychoactive substances (NPS). The analysis of the drug market during the pandemic COVID-19 did not show a fall in the availability of drugs at the national level.

Since early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a dramatic impact on the way we live, with European countries having to introduce unprecedented measures to protect public health. As with all areas of life, drug consumption, related harms and drug markets have been impacted, as have the drug services established to respond to drug-related problems. Since the start of the pandemic in March 2020, the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction instigated three rapid assessment studies to identify the initial impact and implications of COVID-19 on drug markets, use, harms and drug services in the community and in prisons. Findings from these studies revealed that the pandemic and associated health prevention measures implemented by the countries impacted drug markets and use differently depending on the different periods and events throughout the pandemic, but also according to particular drugs or user characteristics. Most drug services remained operational throughout the pandemic in order to assure continuity of care. This was achieved by innovation and adaptation of their services, especially during the different lockdown periods. Thus, the results from these rapid assessments provide a glimpse into new developments in the drugs field across European countries emerging both during and in response to the pandemic, and which could have important implications for the future.

The paper concerns the performance of protective measures under the provisions of the Executive Penal Code (k.k.w.). Primarily, it presents the authorisation and duties of one of the organs dealing with criminal enforcement proceedings, provided for in Art. 2 item 5 of k.k.w., that is a person managing another facility regulated by the criminal law. In particular, this entity is responsible for the execution of measures awarded in criminal proceedings. The above issues are current in the light of the doctrine, legal solutions, as well as from the practical point of view since it is the actions undertaken by the body of executive proceedings that determine effective and proper enforcement of the judgment whereby a protective measure was awarded against the perpetrator. This study features an analysis of the powers that a manager of another facility has, as referred to in the k.k.w. related to his/her competence to admit a perpetrator into the facility, implement the judicial decision concerning the application of protective measures, inspect the rooms where perpetrators are detained, and interfere with detainees’ contacts with the outside world. Further, the paper presents other duties of persons heading another penal facility as provided by the Executive Penal Code. It also offers an appraisal of legal solutions to be found in statutes and regulations other than statutes.

Artykuł podejmuje problematykę dotyczącą wykonywania środków zabezpieczających na podstawie przepisów kodeksu karnego wykonawczego. Przede wszystkim w opracowaniu przedstawiono uprawnienia i obowiązki jednego z organów postępowania karnego wykonawczego ujętego w art. 2 pkt 5 k.k.w. – czyli osoby kierującej innym zakładem przewidzianym w przepisach prawa karnego wykonawczego. Podmiot ten jest odpowiedzialny w szczególności za wykonywanie środków zabezpieczających orzeczonych wyrokiem karnym. Zagadnienia te są aktualne w świetle rozważań doktrynalnych, rozwiązań prawnych, a także z praktycznego punktu widzenia, albowiem zasadniczo to właśnie działania podejmowane przez ten organ postępowania wykonawczego warunkują skuteczne i prawidłowe wykonanie wyroku, którym orzeczono wobec sprawcy środek zabezpieczający. Przedmiotem opracowania jest przede wszystkim analiza kompetencji przyznanych osobie kierującej innym zakładem, o jakim mowa w k.k.w,. związanych z przyjęciem sprawcy do zakładu i realizacji orzeczenia o zastosowaniu wobec niego środków zabezpieczających oraz dotyczących kontroli pomieszczeń, w których przebywają sprawcy i ingerencji organu w ich kontakty ze światem zewnętrznym. Ponadto w artykule zaprezentowano pozostałe obowiązki osoby kierującej innym zakładem przewidzianym w przepisach prawa karnego wykonawczego, a także dokonano oceny rozwiązań prawnych w zakresie podjętej problematyki zawartych w ustawach oraz w przepisach pozaustawowych.
