Relief for some of NZ s sickest people as medicinal cannabis patients granted another six months access Newshub 10/03/2021 © Newshub Nation Watch Anna Bracewell-Worrall s Newshub Nation report.
Some of New Zealand s sickest people will be sighing with relief after Health Minister Andrew Little stepped in to grant an extra six months for medicinal cannabis companies to meet a stiff quality standard imposed by the Government.
The six-month extension was granted five days after anxious patients shared fears on Newshub Nation they would lose access to prescribed medicinal cannabis once the standard is introduced.
Just two products from one company, Tilray, have met the standard for medicinal cannabis, both approved on Friday 5 March.
