✅ Legal possession of up to 100g of cannabis at home and 25g on your person.
✅ Ability to grow 3 cannabis plants for personal use
✅ Therapeutic use of psilocybin - a big step for therapy and mental health
✅ Mitigation of cannabis penalties - privileged status
❗ But at the same time we can't ignore what didn't pass:
❌ They didn't lower the criminal penalties for drug offences - they still threaten disproportionate sentences
❌ Outdated section on the propagation of addiction remains, which hinders both education and harm reduction
➡️ We need change that is not afraid to think systemically. This novelisation is just the first step.
