The federal parliament will vote on the Greens bill to legalise cannabis on November 27, Senator David Shoebridge has announced.
The bill, introduced by Shoebridge in the upper house in August 2023, would allow adult recreational use and pave the way for legal home grow of up to six plants and a commercial cannabis market across the country.
It would also establish the Cannabis Australia National Agency as a statutory body to register strains and regulate activities including growing and possessing plants, manufacturing and selling products, operating cafes, and imports and exports.
Shoebridge pledged to press on with the bill despite a senate committee rejecting it in June.
