Proceeding contribution from Geraldine Smith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 January 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Regulation of Cannabis.


Regulation of Cannabis

I welcome my right hon. Friend’s decision to review the whole drug classification system, which is confusing. I also welcome the fact that he takes the issue of cannabis seriously and appreciates that it is a dangerous drug; there are Members of this House who do not appear to appreciate its dangers. I further welcome his education programme, which will prove important for young people, but does he not realise that the failure to reclassify could send out confusing signals and undermine his education programme?
