You can check reporting of the Social Planbureau, Politie, of which some gets through to rijksoverheid.nl. Then there the usual suspects of publications that still maintain dedicated investigative journalists such as De Groene Amsterdammer and FTM. NRC and Volkskrant on occasion. De Telegraaf is an unusual exception to the pattern because their journalism is afwul, except their crime reporting (it sells so they pay for it).
You can also checkout where journalistic prizes go.
Keywords are ondermijnende of ontwrichtende criminaliteit.

MUCH appreciated!

I had never thought of this. It seems like a great technique for international/interlingual research, in general. Thanks for suggesting it!
[edited to add:]
Also, as mentioned elsewhere in this thread -- the Dutch government has been taking a certain kinda turn.
I'm also asking as someone whose family has been affected by the opiate epidemic in the US. I'm someone who's concerned about drug policy, first domestically but also globally. I want harm reduction. I'm in the middle of a career change and may be focusing on this going forward (if I can find out how).
So I promise you, I'm not trying to beg-the-question, I'm legitimately curious about your comment and just trying to deal with the language barrier.
