Legislators to debate whether to legalise marijuana
Mar 28, 2013
HAMILTON, Bermuda, CMC – The Bermuda parliament will “soon” debate a motion to decide whether or not to legalise the use of marijuana in this British Overseas Territory.
“We will bring to the House of Assembly a ‘take note’ motion so we can have a public debate on the issue. I don’t advocate one way or the other, but it’s something we should have a debate on,” Attorney General and Justice Minister, Mark Pettingill, told the Bermuda Sun newspaper.
Pettingill said that the United States, the United Kingdom and other European countries had opted for decriminalization or watering down the legislation regarding the possession of the illegal drug.
