New UNSW research is looking at the decriminalization of Cannabis in the ACT for guidance on successful drug policy. Leave a comment
In 2018, the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) made history as the first region in Australia to legalize cannabis. This significant development was achieved through the passage of the Drugs of Dependence (Personal Cannabis Use) Amendment Bill. The bill allows residents to possess a small amount of cannabis and officially came into effect over a year ago, on January 31st, 2020.
Following its legalization, the ACT has not encountered any severe repercussions, prompting numerous researchers and policymakers to regard it as a model for effective drug policy.
