Medicinal cannabis campaigner Rebecca Reider has criticized the government’s bill, claiming that it doesn’t go far enough and will still criminalize suffering people.

Reuben McLaren spoke to Ross Bell, the Executive Director of the New Zealand Drug foundation, to discuss the benefits and drawbacks.
