[world politics news]


Ireland has become the latest European country to consider legislation to legalize some form of adult-use cannabis.

The Irish Parliament, called the Oireachtas, plans to take up a bill introduced by Gino Kenny, a member of parliament from the People Before Profit party, according to a Forbes report.

The legislation would allow adults 18 and older to possess up to 7 grams of cannabis or 2.5 grams of cannabis resin for personal use, the news outlet reported. Viewed largely as a decriminalization bill, the legislation would not tee up commercial cannabis cultivation or sales, according to Forbes, nor would it allow the cultivation of cannabis for personal use.
