Development of the Hemp Sector in Ireland: Discussion
Ms Chris Allen:
We can process it here but we do not have large-scale processing facilities. Mr. McCabe builds houses with hemp blocks. He makes the product himself on his own farm. Customs and Revenue in Ireland are instructed by the Minister for Health not to allow any hemp to pass the Irish border because no amount of THC is allowed to enter Ireland.
