(1) AUSTRALIA: MARIJUANA REPORT TOO HOT TO RELEASE
A MAJOR report backing marijuana decriminalisation was suppressed
despite a specific requirement that it be made public.
The report to a powerful State Parliament committee backed
decriminalisation, smaller fines for personal use and allowing as
many as 10 plants to be grown by smokers.
But the State Government yesterday distanced itself from the report,
which was handed to the Drugs and Crime Prevention Committee shortly
before Steve Bracks seized power.
