But the headline is that the trend has been continuing for a while, and it's certainly that cocaine positive rates are up, as you say, just over 68%.
Yeah, potentially, potentially.
One thing we know is that cocaine on a global scale is up massively.
Our Australian stats show the same picture, and I was in the States a couple of months ago, and they're talking that their cocaine rates are up hugely as well.
Yeah, what we're seeing is that there's a real large spread regionally, and that's one of the really important parts of getting this information out to the region so the employers in different regions can see what their risks are and what we're seeing in different regions across the country.
Canterbury, Otago, down the south on there, they had a huge increase, but that also shows potentially
that the supply is fluid, the supply is moving around the country more than what we've seen in the past.
Yeah, so this is workplace drug testing stats.
We go out there and do the drug testing in the workplace.
It's specific in that we use codes in racial industries that we test for, but traditionally workplace drug testing is for what we call safety-sensitive industries, often blue-collar, but white-collar is testing a lot more as well.
So it is a good subset of all industries across the country.
It's fairly well spread across the board.
You do sometimes have your peaks.
We see peaks come up to the Christmas season, so there are some seasonal peaks coming into summer and so on.
But from a Monday to Friday perspective, it's pretty much across the board.
