What is the International Narcotics Control Board?
The International Narcotics Control Board (INCB) monitors compliance with the provisions of the international drug control treaties. The INCB ensures that adequate supplies of legal drugs are available for medical and scientific purposes. The Board also makes certain that no leakage from licit sources of drugs to illicit trafficking occurs. It identifies and helps to correct weaknesses in drug control systems and determines which chemicals used to illicitly manufacture drugs should be under international control.
