The Department of National Drug Control (DNDC) in Bermuda says alcohol and tobacco use among young people appears to be declining, but that cannabis use is more common among students than smoking regular cigarettes.
The survey was conducted by the DNDC and the Ministry of Education last October and involved 2,701 children between the ages of 10 and 18.
The results, released yesterday, showed that 48.4 per cent of respondents reported using at least one drug in their lifetime, down from 52.8 per cent in 2019, when the last survey was carried out.
