The government has launched what it says is the country's biggest public consultation on tackling drugs.
Jacqui Smith, who last week admitted having taken cannabis at university, has outlined plans such as more drug education for children aged under 11.
The home secretary will also announce an extra £5m for the Talk to Frank awareness campaign for young people.
And, as Prime Minister Gordon Brown has already said, there will be a review of the reclassification of cannabis.
Ms Smith launched the consultation less than a week after she admitted smoking cannabis while she was at Oxford University in the 1980s.
Her admission prompted a string of fellow Cabinet ministers to reveal their own drug-taking experiences.
