The sale of medicinal marijuana has been legalized in Australia.
In eight weeks, the sale of marijuana for therapeutic and medicinal purposes will begin in Australia, approved by the federal government.
Since last year, the medicinal use of marijuana has been legal in Australia, but currently cannabis medication is imported from abroad. From now on, local cultivation and imported supply will be approved through a fast-track process.
Marijuana is used to treat patients with chronic and/or painful diseases (cancer, epilepsy, motor neuron diseases, etc.)
Greg Hunt, Australia's Minister of Health, has stated that this is the first time in history that the Government will facilitate an import process for domestic supply and that the new legislation will guarantee sufficient supply for all medical demand.
