This country the size of most people’s living rooms still hasn’t made a decision on cannabis with a process that has been running nigh on 4 years now.
A perfect example why it is going to be a long time before anything meaningful happens in the EU
A government-appointed working group has published its proposals for Luxembourg’s cannabis legalisation pilot. The document, Pilot Project For Legal Access To Cannabis For Non-Medical Purposes, outlines plans for a fully legal adult cannabis market in the country, which will limit access to residents only over the age of 18.
A proposal for implementing Luxembourg’s plans to legalise cannabis for recreational was published at the end of last week. The recommendations allow for the possession of up to 3 grams of cannabis, the cultivation of up to 4 plants at home, and a retail market where residents would be allowed to buy a maximum of 5 grams a day, up to 30 grams a month.
One of the main recommendations in the plan, titled Pilot Project For Legal Access To Cannabis For Non-Medical Purposes is, “that access to cannabis for non-medical purposes should be regulated by a rigorous and robust pilot project tailored to meet Luxembourg’s specific needs.”
The framework was drafted after consultations with an interministerial working group, the final document was then sent for review by four international experts, Henri Bergeron, Rebecca Jesseman, Tomas Zabransky and Steve Rolles.
The first stage of the pilot project would be to amend current legislation to enact the proposals into law by amending the amended Act of 19 February 1973 on the sale of medicinal substances.
