here`s just one lil quote to get yas started :D

2.2.4 MEDICAL CERTIFICATION BY ACCREDITED MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS

Medical certification that a patient had one of the specified conditions could be produced to a police officer

in defence of a charge of possession or use of cannabis. The certification would simply confirm that an

accredited medical practitioner had certified that the patient suffered from one or more of the listed

conditions. A patient who had obtained this certification, but did not have it on his or her person when

apprehended, could later produce it and avoid prosecution.

In the interests of privacy, the certification document would not name the specified condition for which the

patient had obtained certification (see Volume II - Appendix H). Instead, certification would simply state that

the patient met criteria for one or more of the specified conditions.

Renewal of certification would occur every six months. This is the same length of time for which

prescriptions for other controlled substances are made. It would mean that re-assessment of the use of

cannabis for the specified condition could be made in the light of its effects on the progress of the condition

and general well-being of the patient.

Doctors certifying that a patient has one or more of these specified medical conditions should be accredited

medical practitioners, registered in NSW with appropriate training. This training would include guidelines on

certifying, as well as training on counselling patients about the health risks of cannabis smoking
