(1) AUSTRALIA: REPORT URGES CANNABIS TO BE LEGALISED
NSW Cabinet is to consider a report which found most people want
cannabis to be used for medical purposes, particularly for pain relief.
While cannabis is illegal in NSW, the state government is investigating
whether to follow other countries which allow people with serious
illness to use it for pain relief.
A report on the results of community consultation into the drug's
usage released in state parliament today found more than 70 per cent
of 117 respondents said its use for medical purposes should be allowed.
Eleven per cent opposed it completely while the rest did not hold a
position.
