Proposals and Initiatives to Reform the Laws on Cannabis in Spain
According to the web search results, there are several proposals and initiatives to reform the laws on cannabis in Spain from different political parties, social movements, and civil society organizations. Some of these are:
- The Podemos party has proposed a bill to regulate cannabis for medical, recreational, and industrial purposes, which would include legalizing cannabis clubs, allowing home cultivation, creating a public agency to control production and distribution, and taxing cannabis sales.
- The Más País party has also proposed a bill to regulate cannabis for medical and recreational purposes, which would include legalizing cannabis clubs, allowing home cultivation, creating a public agency to control production and distribution, and taxing cannabis sales.
- The Ciudadanos party has proposed a bill to regulate cannabis for medical purposes only, which would include allowing doctors to prescribe cannabis products, creating a registry of patients and prescribers, and establishing quality standards and controls for cannabis products.
- The Regulación Responsable platform is a social movement that advocates for the regulation of cannabis for medical, recreational, and industrial purposes, which would include legalizing cannabis clubs, allowing home cultivation, creating a public agency to control production and distribution, and taxing cannabis sales.
- The Spanish Observatory of Medicinal Cannabis (OECM) is a civil society organization that promotes the access and research of cannabis for therapeutic purposes, which would include allowing doctors to prescribe cannabis products, creating a registry of patients and prescribers, and establishing quality standards and controls for cannabis products.
However, these proposals and initiatives face many obstacles and oppositions from different sectors and interests, such as the conservative parties (PP and Vox), the health authorities, the law enforcement agencies, the pharmaceutical industry, and some international treaties. Therefore, it is uncertain whether any of these proposals or initiatives will succeed in reforming the laws on cannabis in Spain in the near future.👩⚖️
