The Parliament of Ghana has made a significant stride in drug policy reform by passing the Narcotics Control Commission Amendment Bill 2023 which will allow the cultivation of Cannabis (Wee) in Ghana for Industrial and Medicinal Use.
The bill grants the Minister for the Interior, Ambrose Dery, the power to authorize licenses for the cultivation of cannabis, commonly known as “wee,” for industrial and medicinal purposes.
This development marks a progressive shift towards embracing the potential benefits of cannabis in the country.
By allowing licensed cultivation, Ghana aims to harness the economic opportunities associated with the cannabis industry, including industrial applications and medicinal research.
The move aligns with global trends in recognizing the therapeutic potential of cannabis and promoting responsible regulation.
As the implementation of the bill progresses, stakeholders anticipate positive outcomes for both the Ghanaian economy and the medical community.
