The Kentucky General Assembly passed Senate Bill 47, making it legal last year.
Now, it doesn't take effect until 2025, given the state time to create the necessary regulations.
The governor talked about that process today during his first news conference of 2024.
Today, my administration filed its first ten regulations governing this area.
They provide the framework for how medical cannabis businesses, including the cultivators, processors, producers, dispensaries and safety compliance facilities, will operate in the Commonwealth.
These new rules will provide guidance for how medical cannabis products will be packaged labeled, transported, advertised and tested.
These regulations will ensure that Kentucky's medical cannabis program is safe and accessible for all patients and to make sure that they are secure for our communities.
Kentuckians can read each of these regulations for themselves and find out how to participate in the regulatory process by visiting K-Y.
Med kan dot K-Y dot gov.
We would not have passed medical cannabis without the input and the action of so many Kentuckians.
We invite you to continue to be a part of this process.
