Yes, to the regulation of marijuana: Cofepris
(Comisión Federal para la Protección contra Riesgos Sanitarios)
Julio Sanchez y Tepoz, head of the Cofepris, pronounced in favor of the regulation of marijuana as proposed by the initiative of Senator Olga Sánchez Cordero.
“It is a necessity, as has been said here in the session, of regulating the recreational use of cannabis, as well as the regulation of cannabis for all the different uses. I think that the approach to cannabis from the point of view of regulation and non-prohibition is a success and therefore from the regulatory point of view as many other countries in the world have done, it will be necessary to focus this regulation in terms of health. public and prevention of patients, ” said Julio Sánchez and Tepoz.
The seeds too:
He said that it is also necessary to regularize the market for cannabis seeds because currently it is not known where the users get them.
“Clearly there is an opportunity for regulation in this matter and it is very important to regulate all those aspects. The seed, even from the medicinal point of view must be very clear in the dosage, “said Sanchez y Tepoz.
