Medicinal cannabis review

Summary

Deputy Kenny sought a firm date for the HPRA review of medicinal cannabis policy. The Taoiseach said he would get back to him with an update on the review schedule.

Will the Taoiseach give a definite date for the review by the Health Products Regulatory Authority, which used to be the medicines board, of the latest policy on medicinal cannabis use in Ireland? Many people inside and outside the House are keen to get clarification on the use of medicinal cannabis. We have put through legislation. Although the Minister is not here, could we get a firm date on the review? I am sure the Taoiseach could provide such a date.

I will have to get back to Deputy Gino Kenny with an update on the review. I am not aware of the particular schedule set out by the Minister but I will advise the Deputy on it.
