German cannabis control bill

Entwurf eines Cannabiskontrollgesetzes (CannKG) ("design of a cannabis control law") is a proposed descheduling of cannabis from Betäubungsmittelgesetz, the federal controlled substances law in Germany. The issue was proposed by Alliance '90/The Greens (the German Green Party). It would regulate cannabis in a manner similar to alcohol, with adults 18 years old permitted to buy and possess up to 30 grams in regulated stores.[1][2]
