Development of the Hemp Sector in Ireland: Discussion
Mr. Marcus McCabe:
We were able to do it but the goalposts have moved into the next parish because there is an opinion that only 1 mcg - actually, it is 1 mcg, so we are only talking about a millionth of a gram - is permissible. CBD products have been taken off the shelves all over Ireland in recent months and hemp businesses are being closed down everywhere.
