Well, while I'm here...

I've once written a proposal for this myself. I think your definition of recreational drugs is definetely too narrow.

My proposal (never got far, though I never TGd for it):
Quote: NSUN Drug Act

The NSUN,

AFFIRMING the right of each individual to take responsibility for their own body, and make their own decisions about their body as long as no other person is harmed;

CONSIDERING the difficulties that arise when some nations forbid recreational drug use while others allow it;

RECOGNIZING the objections of many nations with regards to morality, national sovereignity and healthcare;

EXPECTING a drop in crime rates if drug use is legal and tolerated, like it is with more commonly accepted drugs such as nicotine and alcohol;

Hereby:

1. EMPHASIZES that what citizens do to their own body is of their own concern, not the government's, and should not be intervened with unless there is a good reason to;

2. DEFINES "recreational drugs" as those drugs not taken primarily for medicinal use;

3. URGES all nations to decriminalize the use, possession, supply and production of recreational drugs;

4. EMPHASIZES that member nations may choose to restrict drug use in the interest of society as a whole, if a certain drug has been proven to cause serious danger to the health of other people than the person taking the drug;

5. ADVISES to reinvest the money saved on prosecuting drug use into social welfare, educational and health programs;

6. ENCOURAGES all nations to apply quality control to recreational drugs in the same sense that food is checked, to limit the dangers and addictiveness; and

7. CONDEMNS nations who try to outlaw all recreational drugs regardless of their citizen's wishes.

With additional input by _Myopia_.
