Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Deputy for raising this issue. I will have to ask the Minister, Deputy Stephen Donnelly, to come back to him on this issue. There is a medical cannabis programme, as the Deputy knows, but there are still differing views in the medical profession in particular as to the clinical efficacy and appropriateness of prescribing cannabis. That is part of the issue. Supply is another issue.
