MD of European Hemp Association speaks out
A spokesperson for a European consortium on hemp has branded Manx legislation on the crop 'stupid'.
Managing Director of the European Industrial Hemp Association Michael Carus, believes there is a 'strange logic' in being able to buy hemp-derived products on Island whilst law forbids growers from cultivating it.
Speaking to Manx Radio via skype from his home in Germany, Dr. Carus said the current regulations on hemp are down to misinformed politicians:
Border security: 'Even today, we don't know who's here'
Border Agency 'absolutely required' says Island's chief constable
DoI 'working closely' with Steam Packet to assess impact of Manxman withdrawal
Department says it wants to know about contingency arrangements during MGP
Tynwald mandated gas tariffs suspended by court
A later court date has provisionally been set for October
'Not viable' to pause visa applications says treasury minister
