The House subsequently overturned that decision - I am aware of that - but the Bill has not progressed since.
The Government has taken a twin-track approach to this, as the Deputy will be aware. Products with tetrahydrocannabinol are subject to licence where the applicant has a medical consultant who is leading the request. To the best of my knowledge none of those applications has been refused. Then there is the case of non-THC medicinal products. The Department has engaged extensively and is looking at international best practice to see how we can progress that issue.
