Regina v Brock; Regina v Wyner: CACD 22 Feb 2001

The offence of knowingly permitting premises to be used for the supply of controlled drugs was proved by establishing actual knowledge of drug dealing, or willful blindness as to such activities on the premises, and an unwillingness to prevent it. Unwillingness could be established by showing that the defendants had failed to take reasonable and readily available steps to prevent the dealing in drugs.
