Cannabiz Australia reports
Fresh efforts to decriminalise cannabis and kick start the industrial hemp sector are to be introduced in Western Australia.
Legalise Cannabis WA MP Dr Brian Walker said he will table a bill to end cannabis prohibition and remove the shackles which are hampering the growth of the hemp industry.
Echoing previous sentiments over the continued criminality of cannabis, Dr Walker said prohibition āhas failedā.
Announcing the plans, LCWA said it will be the āfirst serious effort to bring back previously successful cannabis decriminalisation into WesternĀ Australiaā, a reference to the Cannabis Control Act which decriminalised the drug in 2004.
Despite claims that fewer young people consumed cannabis after decriminalisation, the law was repealed by the Barnett Government in 2011.
No details of Dr Walkerās bill were immediately disclosed by the Legalise Cannabis Party, with the content still being āfine tunedā.
But party officials said it will ādraw upon the proven framework of the Cannabis Control Bill 2004, which successfully contributed to a decline in teenage cannabis use during its operationā.
āThis model offers a pathway for individuals ā both medical and adult-use cannabis consumers ā to grow their own plants without fear of a criminal record, and will also contribute to easing cost-of-living pressures for many households,ā the party said.
Dr Walker said of the bill: āWe have been operating under prohibition laws, based on a lie, for over a century. The war on drugsĀ has failed to reduce supply or demand.
āBut when you ask those who support the current system of prohibition what they see as a āwinā, many say fewer young people using psychoactive drugs.
āThe irony is that responsible drug law reform, be that decriminalisation or legalisation, actually achievesĀ that goal, not prohibition.ā
Included in the bill will be a ātrigger lawā, under which industrial hemp will be singled out for immediate relief if and when the Federal parliament allows states and territories to make the call on cannabis legalisation.
āThe reality is our industrial hemp industry is drowning in a sea of over-regulation and itās forcingĀ businesses to close,ā Dr Walker said.
āThere are simply too many hoops for growers to jump through and too many limits on what parts of the plant can be used.
