    The Office of National Drug Control Policy coordinates Federal, State,
    and local efforts to control illegal drug abuse and devises national
    strategies to effectively carry out antidrug activities.

    The Office of National Drug Control Policy was established by the
    National Narcotics Leadership Act of 1988 (21 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.),
    effective January 29, 1989, as amended by the Violent Crime Control and
    Law Enforcement Act of 1994 (21 U.S.C. 1502, 1506, 1508).
        The Director of National Drug Control Policy is appointed by the
    President with the advice and consent of the Senate. The Director is
    assisted by a Deputy Director, a Deputy Director for Demand Reduction, a
    Deputy Director for Supply Reduction, and a Deputy Director for State
    and Local Affairs.
        The Director of National Drug Control Policy is responsible for
    establishing policies, objectives, priorities, and performance
    measurement for the national drug control program, and for annually
    promulgating a national drug control strategy and supporting annual
    reports to be submitted to the Congress by the President. The Director
    advises the President regarding necessary changes in the organization,
    management, budgeting, and personnel allocation of Federal agencies
    involved in drug enforcement activities and is also responsible for
    notifying Federal agencies if their policies are not in compliance with
    their responsibilities under the national drug control strategy.
