What is nd.gov.hk and which Hong Kong government body does it belong to?

Updated

nd.gov.hk is the official website of the Narcotics Division (ND), a government department under the Security Bureau of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. It is a public information portal for anti-drug policy and drug-related services, not a commercial website, and it does not sell products or provide paid services.

Who runs the site

The Narcotics Division is the government unit responsible for coordinating Hong Kong's anti-drug efforts. It works across policy, enforcement support, preventive education, treatment and rehabilitation, and research. The site sits under the Security Bureau, which is the policy bureau overseeing the division.

What you can find there

The portal is aimed at the general public, professionals and organisations working in drug prevention and rehabilitation. Typical content areas include:

  • Anti-drug policy and strategy – the government's overall direction and coordinated programmes.
  • Preventive education and publicity – campaigns, resources for schools and community groups.
  • Treatment and rehabilitation – information on services and support for people affected by drug use.
  • Research and statistics – survey findings and data on drug use in Hong Kong.
  • Resources and publications – reports, guidelines and downloadable materials.

When the site is useful

Use nd.gov.hk when you need authoritative Hong Kong government information on drug policy, prevention resources, or support services. It is the right starting point for students, teachers, social workers, researchers and members of the public looking for official material rather than commercial or third-party summaries.

Because it is a government portal, content is published for information and public service. Specific service details, eligibility and application arrangements should be checked on the relevant pages of the site itself.
