Jamaica: Justice Minister Announces Plan To Relax Marijuana Laws

Kingston, Jamaica: Government officials last week announced their intent to relax the country's marijuana possession penalties.
In a publicly released statement, Justice Minister Mark Golding said that Parliament would amend the nation's drug laws so that possessing cannabis would no longer be a criminal offense.
"[T]he criminalization of possession of a small quantity of ganja and of smoking ganja has caused significant hardships in Jamaica, particularly among young men," he said. "A conviction for possession or use of ganja results in a criminal record, which often precludes the offender from engaging certain employment, impacts his ability to get visas to travel overseas, and generally limits his life prospects. This is a serious human rights issue, supporting the cry for reform to our laws in this area."
