AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 16 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE UNIFORM CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES ACT.

This Bill amends the Uniform Controlled Substances Act to establish quantity tiers specific to drug offenses involving fentanyl. This update to the UCSA accounts for the high potency and lethality of fentanyl relative to other substances in its current statutory category, and the rise in deaths and suffering related to fentanyl throughout Delaware communities.
