Petition Action

amend the law relating to the growing of cannabis for personal use

Additional Information

A report from the UK Drug Policy Commission (UKDPC) entitled A Fresh Approach to Drugs, suggests that cannabis possession should be made legal and people should be able to grow the plant for personal use.

"For example, there is an argument that amending the law relating to the growing of it, at least for personal use, might go some way to undermining the commercialisation of production, with associated involvement of organised crime and the development of stronger strains of cannabis ('skunk'), that we have seen in the UK and other countries in recent years."
