BusinessCann: Is Luxembourg’s Quest To Introduce An Adult-Use Cannabis Programme Going Up In Smoke?

Well that didn’t last long…

CONCERNS over Luxembourg’s intent to become the first European country to legalise adult-use cannabis have emerged.

In an interview on public radio Justice Minister Sam Tanson refused to confirm that Luxembourg will legalize recreational cannabis by 2023.

The Luxembourg Times reports Ms Tanson as saying: “I can’t confirm anything,” when asked if cannabis was going to be legalized as first proposed by the coalition government in 2018.
