Effects of Bill:
This bill being passed means that:
Medical cannabis will now be allowed provided and individual can prove they have a condition which benefits from it;
Tobacco companies can no longer sponsor race cars or anyone else, removing one of the few remaining ways they can advertise;
Rules around sharing of psych medical data are now more relaxed so that appropriate oversight body hearings and inquiries are able to examine relevant case data in order to investigate malpractice.
