22 poor infant growth, childhood emotional and behavioral
23 problems, and significant medical and economic costs,

7misuse abuse of drugs and other dangerous substances and its
8resultant damage to the peace, health, and welfare of the

11effectively: (1) limit access of such substances only to those
12persons who have demonstrated an appropriate sense of
13responsibility and have a lawful and legitimate reason to
14possess them; (2) deter the unlawful and destructive misuse
15abuse of controlled substances; (3) penalize most heavily the

21various types of controlled substances and provide for
22correspondingly different degrees of control over each of the
23various types; (5) unify where feasible and codify the efforts

25Federal government; and (6) provide law enforcement

SB0647 Engrossed- 13 -LRB103 03100 RJT 48106 b

4unlawful user or occasional petty distributor of controlled
5substances with the same severity as the large-scale, unlawful
6purveyors and traffickers of controlled substances. However,
7it is recognized that persons who violate this Act with
8respect to the manufacture, delivery, possession with intent
9to deliver, or possession of more than one type of controlled
10substance listed herein may accordingly receive multiple
11convictions and sentences under each Section of this Act. To

13latitude in sentencing discretion, to enable the sentencing
14court to order penalties in each case which are appropriate
15for the purposes of this Act.

5 effect, if known;
6 (3) the state of current scientific knowledge
7 regarding the substance;
8 (4) the history and current pattern of misuse abuse;
9 (5) the scope, duration, and significance of misuse
10 abuse;
11 (6) the risk to the public health;
12 (7) the potential of the substance to produce
13 psychological or physiological dependence or a substance
14 use disorder;
15 (8) whether the substance is an immediate precursor of
16 a substance already controlled under this Article;
