Medicinal Use Of Cannabis (No. 2)
EDM number 651 in 1998-99, proposed by Paul Flynn on 17/05/1999.
That this House deplores the continuing criminalisation of thousands of otherwise law-abiding people who use cannabis medicinally to relive chronic pain and distress caused by multiple sclerosis, AIDS, and the side-effects of chemotherapy; and supports the simple change in the law recommended by the House of Lords Select Committee on Science to allow a limited numbers of doctors to prescribe cannabis to named patients in the same way that millions of other prescriptions are now dispensed.
This motion has been signed by a total of 105 MPs.
