Tynwald considering legalisation of the drug
Politicians need to learn from other jurisdictions when it comes to the legalisation of medicinal cannabis.
The subject has been raised in Tynwald as the health department explores the possibility of allowing the growth and export of the drug.
Minister David Ashford says he's keen to avoid the 'pitfalls' other countries have fallen into.
He believes it's important not to rush through any law change:
