Australia: Greens to call for parliamentary inquiry into medicinal cannabis
The Advocate Sunday 29 Jun 2014 Ms O'Connor said the party believed it was timely for the state and said it had long supported the calls from medical professionals to legalise the substance. “It is disappointing that the Health Minister has seen fit to be dismissive of this important medical issue, trivialising it by referencing people ‘smoking pot’, and then hand-balling responsibility to the federal arena," she said. “The Greens have long supported calls from medical professionals for more research and clinical trials as well as regulated access to medicinal cannabis, as there are many individual stories of improved symptoms and quality of life from people who've used medicinal cannabis." We believe it is timely for Tasmania to undertake a rigorous examination into how the state can best regulate or legislate for the use of medicinal cannabis, and the Greens will move to establish a parliamentary inquiry when Parliament resumes.” http://www.theadvocate.com.au/story/2383336/greens-to-call-for-parliamentary-inquiry-into-medicinal-cannabis/?cs=12
