How should the UK government tackle legal highs?

The new phenomenon of legal highs presents a challenge for many governments. The criminalisation of traditional substances has paved the way for such substitute products--many of which have fatal consequences. Is there a more suitable alternative to the traditional 'command and control' regulatory model? Could the UK Government look to economic models from other continents to shape drug policy? A change needs to happen.
