Anti-Doping Authority the Netherlands

The Anti-Doping Authority of the Netherlands, the Doping Authority for short, is the independent NADO of the Netherlands. Our mission is to create doping-free sports in the Netherlands. We do so on behalf of the government (specifically, the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport) and the Netherlands Olympic Committee * Netherlands Sports Confederation (NOC*NSF) and working in co-operation with numerous national and international organisations.

The core activities of the Doping Authority are:

• Providing information and education for elite athletes and their immediate circles;
• Providing information and education for athletes in fitness centres and their immediate circles;
• Providing information and education for athlete support personnel;
• Providing information for the general public;
• Detecting of doping violations, particularly by means of doping controls;
• Developing and monitoring anti-doping regulations and conducting legal proceedings;
• Collecting and disseminating knowledge and scientific knowledge about doping and doping prevention;
• Furthering international coordination.
