Following the story of a mother who had her autistic and epileptic son’s medicinal cannabis taken away when entering Britain, the country has now said it will review cannabis for medical use.
Britain’s Home Secretary Sajid David told the U.K. parliament this week that the use of cannabis-based medicines in the health service should be examined.
He remarked, “It is not satisfactory for the parents, it is not satisfactory for the doctor and it is not satisfactory for me.”
As for the six-year old boy whose medicine was taken away, David had said there was a license being issued to allow his treatment to continue.
As of right now, cannabis that has more than 0.05 percent of the psychoactive element THC is illegal in the U.K.
