South Africa CBD Oil Laws

Hey guys hope you’re well and welcome to another video on CBD. I’m gonna to be giving you guys a bit of an update on some regulations that have just been amended.

So on the 22nd of May, 2020 there was an amendment to the medicines and related Substances Act and it’s basically these amendments that are relating to CBD and THC. So let’s start with a quick disclaimer before we jump in.

I’m not an expert myself. I’m, just relaying the information and I’ve, read through it and highlighted some things that I think are important, but not advice. It’s, just a public broadcast. So here we are basically in front of me.

So basically in front of me we’ve got the notice, a government Gazette that was published on the 22nd of May 2020. So that was just less than seven days ago, less than a week ago, and basically it’s an update to the medicines and related Substances Act of 1965 act, number 101 of 1965 and yeah so just going through. This is all the old amendments that they’ve had in the past and basically we’re reading through this.

If it is in bold square brackets like this, then that’s been omitted or taken out, and if it’s underlined not involved. That means it’s, a new insertion, so we’re gonna primarily be focusing on new insertions, and what’s being taken out. I was scrolling down and there’s also some info on schedule 6.

I think those are the different schedules of medical grade drugs, so you get the more powerful ones or like schedule 6 the more things like the opioids and highly addictive ones. Schedule for it just basically goes into what schedule for stuff is a little bit of info on that and then here’s the new edition where they say cannabidiol, except this is where they’ve inserted to some new stuff. They say they’ve, inserted, except a in complementary medicines containing no more than six hundred milligrams of cannabidiol per sales pack, providing a maximum daily dose of twenty milligrams of cannabidiol and making a general health enhancement.

Health maintenance or relief of minor symptoms, low-risk claim or processed products services be processed products made from cannabis. Raw plant material intended for ingestion containing point not seventy five percent or less of cannabidiol, where only the natural occurring quantity of cannabinoids found in that.

In the source, material or contained in the product, so that’s been inserted in schedule all so. I just highlighted some things yet that I thought were kind of interesting about they’ve, given us eyes of the day doors and like how much in a sales pack quite interesting and then some info on schedule 6.

This is obviously pursuing to the THC. I was talking about how I made of a practitioner may prescribe and some booths apply certain schedule. Six substances dah-dah-dah – and here we go so tetra delta-9, tetra cabin and all accept trans Delta, nine tetrahydrocannabinol when intended for therapeutic purposes and they’ve inserted in raw plant material and processed products manufactured from such material intended for industrial Purposes and not for human or animal ingestion containing nor point two percent or less of tetra hydro cabinet.

Okay, hang tight, guys! Sorry, I lost my focus for a second. I was saying I was saying this wrong. I tetrahydrocannabinol can a banal. Tetrahydrocannabinol is, I think I was saying, can have an own dial again anyway.

Processed products made from cannabis containing nor point naught, naught 1 percent or less of tetrahydrocannabinol or when raw plant material is cultivated, processed and consumed by an adult in private for personal consumption.

So, as we’ve said in the past, cannabis is legal for adult private personal consumption, maybe check out fields of green for all below and [ Music ]. Then they’ve emitted some more over here and then scrolling down schedule 7, and they’ve basically admitted cannabis from schedule 7 and does the schedule 7 drugs cannabis is over here. So this is what they’ve removed from the schedule 7. I believe cannabis, ie data, the whole plant or any portion or product thereof, except when separately specified in schedules.

Section 4, or section 6 or processed hemp fiber containing not 0.1 % or less of tetrahydrocannabinol or and products manufactured from such fiber, provided that the product does not contain whole cannabis seeds and there’s, an ax form not suitable for ingestion, smoking or Inhaling purposes all processed product made from cannabis seeds containing not more than 10 milligrams per kilogram.

Nor point naught naught 1 percent of tetrahydrocannabinol Canada Nile and does not contain all cannabis. Seeds. Process means treated by mechanical, chemical or other artificial means, but does not include a harvesting or be the natural process of decay, and then there’s, some more that they’ve admitted trying to, but now try and star tonight mmm.

So I’m, losing my voice, yeah tetrahydrocannabinol and their alkaline, except when separates is specified in the schedules. You know I didn’t even really. This is more leading to hemp, seed oil, but him seed, oil containing 10 milligrams per kilogram or less of tetra hydro, carbon and oils were labeled not to be taken or not, for internal human use or in products for purpose other than internal human [, __ ].

Other than internal human use containing ten milligrams per kilogram or less of Tet Roger cabin cabin ours, hemp seed oil means the oil obtained from cold Express expression, expression of from the ripened fruit seeds of cannabis.

Sativa there it is signed, Oh 805, 2020, Minister of Health. It’s passed down. This is all removed. There’s, additions, subtractions it’s up to you guys to to go, make a sense of it. If you do have conclusions of this or you’ve studied this or researched us intensively, maybe leave a comment below and let us know or let me let me know what what’s cooking from what I can tell it.

Doesn’t seem to have much impact, but it seems like cannabis is out of the schedule, seven but yeah. Then I take my advice for it and thank you guys so much for watching sorry if it was a bit long, long, winded, but it’s, something that’s, bigger that’s, a big movement, big! Any changes with regards to cannabis in our industry are extremely important to us and yeah.
