In December 2014, the Attorney-General asked the Commission to review the law to allow people to be treated with medicinal cannabis in exceptional circumstances.
The Commission’s March 2015 issues paper identified two areas of investigation:
- How to define the exceptional circumstances in which a person should be allowed to use medicinal cannabis
- How the law could be amended to enable patients to obtain medicinal cannabis while continuing to prevent unauthorised access.
