Promote non-partisan legislation to legalise and regulate cannabis in a manner similar to alcohol.

Use PBP Private Members Business to push forward Gino Kenny TDs decriminalisation of cannabis bill which would allow people to possess cannabis up to 7grm.

Simon Harris needs to work faster to make medical cannabis accessible. There are already successful examples of legalisation throughout Europe and North America, and people like Ava and her Mother have already waited too long.

The Citizens' Assembly on Drugs Use has the potential to bring justice-based reform to the archaic and abusive Irish drugs policy. However, figures within the HSE, Department of Health and the Irish Government are pushing for a new system which will see all those caught with small personal amounts of cannabis coerced into 'brief' SAOR medical interventions in order to avoid criminal sanctions. This policy will have massive consequences on human rights, bodily autonomy and basic dignity. It will also have disproportionate impact on: • Marginalised communities and people. • Medical cannabis users and patients. • Those in need of addiction treatment. The proposed system will clog up addiction treatment services, filling it with people who use cannabis and will result in people who need genuine help waiting longer. What we really need is a harm-reduction based approach to cannabis which focuses on safe consumption and cultivation, similar to what has been done in Malta with their cannabis social club model.

The recent citizen's assembly on drugs was a farce. Alcohol and tobacco kill more people than all illegal drugs combined. The decision makers should educate themselves.

This is for the people of Ireland not to carry the shame and social stigmatisation that's attached for consuming a plant under there own free will. Look to america and Canada and around the world its about time Ireland follows suit and doesn't punish its own people for making a personal choice . Let the people have there say its there choice let the public have there input fairly as its ones own personal choice to make and they should not be criminalised for personal decisions in this day and age .

We call for the legalisation of Cannabis in Ireland for both unrestricted Medical use and Licensed Recreational use.

Social media platforms unpublish pages for CBD products under "promoting sale of prescription products." While It is well documented that CBD is a natural compound derived from the cannabis plant. CBD product does not get you high, and no significant adverse effects have been reported. They should understand that CBD produced from marijuana and CBD generated from INDUSTRIAL HEMP and they can be used without any side effects.

Reconsider the ineffective action plan announced this week. Hormonal suppression at primary care is not what we need. More surgical options are desperately needed. And more accessible financial funding for patients to travel abroad for effective surgical intervention in the interim. Ensure that endometriosis will be considered under the MCAP program following worldwide research supporting cannabis treatment. Ensure endometriosis is recognised for the disabling condition it is when people are seeking financial support such as disability allowance.
