Spain’s medical cannabis framework will finally start reaching patients over the coming days and weeks, marking a significant milestone in a four-year battle for access.
As reported by Cannabis Health Spanish regulators have taken another step towards introducing the country’s long-delayed medical cannabis framework, but patients say the legislation does not go far enough.
As Spain emerges from months of political deadlock, its newly formed government has at last made a meaningful commitment to break the country’s medical cannabis deadlock in turn.
As reported by Cannareporter The Spanish Minister of Health José María Miñones said today in the Chamber of Deputies that, other than spasticity derived from multiple sclerosis and the different types of epilepsy, ‘unfortunately’ for other diseases the information available on medical cannabis ‘is insufficient and we cannot recommend its use’.
SPAIN’s ambitious plans to see the regulation and distribution of medical cannabis rolled out across the country by the end of 2022 appear to have been delayed.
