THE cannabis reform Bill is one step away
from being passed in parliament after it
cleared committee stage on Tuesday.
In a four-hour-long sitting MPs discussed
the individual clauses and approved minor
changes to the Bill that will allow people
to possess up to 7g of cannabis, grow the
plant at home and buy from regulated
clubs.
However, despite being against the re-
form, the Opposition MPs on the com-
mittee did not put forward any substantial
amendments.
