It is open to clinicians to apply to the Minister for Health for a licence issued pursuant to Section 14 of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1977 to treat a patient with Schedule 1 cannabis-based products.

In these situations it is inappropriate for the Department to discuss such applications with anybody other than the applicant themselves and cannot discuss the matter with the Deputy.
