he procured the drugs but claims not to have used them(the evidence may support that as he was heard saying as much). However procuring is 'Intent to Supply'. He also allowed drugs to be taken in his property which is also an offence. See Misuse of Drugs Act. 'Poppers' is that stuff the gay scene inhale. In my day it was called 'Rush'. I had to google poppers such is my sheltered life . It's amyl nitrate which isn't illegal. There was also talk of paying for Cocaine (not using), paying.It appears he offered to reimburse the cost of drugs to a third party if that third party was to purchase them for their personal use.

Has there been any procurement? It could perhaps be argued that offering to effectively pay for drugs that a third party purchased comes under the definition of supply, but it's stretching it in my opinion.
I cannot see any offence has been committed in relation to his property.
Are poppers unlawful?
