A report by Radboud University researchers which says legalizing cannabis production would have benefits for public health and human rights will not have an impact on government policy, Justice Minister Ard van der Steur has told parliament. The report's findings are no reason to change policy on cannabis cafes, known as coffee shops, the minister said in answer to questions from the Socialists and The D66 Party. The study found that illegal cannabis production was linked to criminal violence, fires, environmental and noise pollution and the spread of legionella bacteria, the Volkskrant reported last month.
