Switzerland: Cannabis vote

Swissinfo.org

Tuesday 02 Mar 2004

---

The Senate has once again come out in support of decriminalising cannabis.

It voted by 28 votes to 12 in favour of proposals that would allow the
possession and production of cannabis for personal use and a limited trade
in the drug.

The Senate passed similar proposals two years ago, but these were defeated
in the House of Representatives last September, just ahead of Switzerland's
parliamentary elections.

Wednesday's decision means the bill will once again be put before the House
of Representatives; if rejected a second time, it stands no chance of
becoming law.
