CANNABIS DELIVERY

The Office of Cannabis Management releases guidelines for cannabis delivery services in New York

The Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) has released guidance for adult-use retailers in New York that are interested in providing cannabis delivery services, setting the stage for the first sales even before licensees have storefronts, reports Marijuana Moment

The regulations will enable bike, scooter and car deliveries. 

Under the rules: 

– Adults 21 and older could place prepaid orders by phone or online. – People could not make in-person purchases at warehouses. 

– A business providing the service is limited to having 25 delivery staff. 

The OCM stated: “CAURD Licensees will be able to receive approval from the Office of Cannabis Management to begin delivery to customers, jumpstarting sales of New York cannabis products with a model that will help them compete while providing options to licensee-entrepreneurs as they build new adult-use cannabis businesses.”

Similarities between Marc Fogel and Brittney Griner case, and what is the US government doing about it

TIME reports that Marc Fogel, a 61-year-old American teacher arrested after entering Russia in August 2021 for possessing medical cannabis, has a case comparable to WNBA star Brittney Griner’s. 

Fogel was arrested for carrying 20 grams of medical cannabis that had been prescribed to him in Pennsylvania and was sentenced to 14 years in a Russian penal colony. The publication highlights that following basketball star Brittney Griner’s release this week, Fogel’s future remains uncertain. 

Thomas Firestone, the family’s attorney, told the publication that: “The Fogel family is very happy for the Griner family and hopes that the U.S. government will apply the same kind of effort to get Marc out.” 

“This is just an extremely unfair sentence and we hope that the U.S. government will do everything in its power to get Marc home safely.”


WEED CARE PILOT

Switzerland’s ‘Weed Care’ pilot, Europe’s first THC adult-use cannabis trial, set to launch in January 2023

BussinessCann reports that Switzerland’s ‘Weed Care’ pilot, set to be Europe’s first ever THC adult-use cannabis trial, is due to begin on January 30. 

The pilot was set to begin in Basel on September 15, however, days before, the city’s health department announced that the cannabis provided ‘narrowly failed to meet a quality standard stipulated in the Ordinance on Pilot Trials under the Narcotics Act’. 

Pure Production AG had received approval from Swiss health authorities to supply the trial, but it was its first batch which failed to meet quality standards. 

Following the harvesting of a second batch, the authorities have found this batch to meet quality standards, enabling the start of the pilot. 

Lino Cereghetti, COO of Pure Production, told BusinessCann: “We’re doing pioneering work here for the whole cannabis industry in Switzerland. Whoever is going to follow us will have it easier because of the price of learning we paid. 

“A lot of stuff has actually been tested out now for the first time. A lot of processes and pathways that didn’t exist before have now been created.”
