IDT, IP Focal Point
IDT,IP
The Portuguese Focal Point (FP) is located within the Institute for Drug and Drug Addiction (IDT). The FP tasks are carried out by the National Monitoring, Training and International Relations Department (DMFRI) one of the departments of the IDT.
Within the EU, National Focal Points were created as parts/elements of the REITOX network (European Information Network on Drugs and Drug Addiction) in the early 1990s.

Governmental agency, nominated by the Government to act as regular point of contact on the exchange of information required by Article 2 of the Council Regulation;
Responsible for setting up and managing the national information system;
Has authority to request and analyse information from other governmental information sources.
 
- The National Focal Points are the main information interfaces between the Member States (MS) and the EMCDDA.
 It is their task, under MS responsibility, to provide the EMCDDA with all information requested within the framework of the Centre’s work programmes (WPs) and to satisfy ad hoc requests from policy‑makers and other key partners of the EMCDDA.
 
EMCDDA quality standards and deadlines have to be respected.
NFPs are, together with the EMCDDA, responsible for a broad dissemination at national level of the EMCDDA and REITOX work results.
 
At national level, each NFP is the leading body that works closely together with all relevant partners that collect, produce and/or analyse data in the drugs field. NFPs work closely together with scientists, policy-makers and specialists working in this field. They closely follow and analyse the scientific, legal and policy developments in their countries.
 
In their very basic concept - are institutions with national coverage, responsible for the availability and quality of a wide range of information related to drugs.
