Iceland: the Pirate Party wants to legalize cannabis for medical use
While a proposal to legalize cannabis is already before the Icelandic Parliament, Halldóra Mogensen, a member of parliament and chair of the Pirate Party, submitted a proposal to legalize medical cannabis to the Minister of Health according to the local media outlet RÚV.
The proposal aims to allow the use and production of cannabis in oil form for medical purposes. It also seeks to draw on the experience of other countries that already permit the use of medical cannabis in order to establish and implement regulations governing the therapeutic use of cannabis.
Cannabis is currently illegal in Iceland. However, the island is one of the the world's largest consumers of cannabis per capita, with 18.3% consumers.
