A bill that proposes making cannabis available for medicinal purposes has been passed by the Dáil.
Members of the Independent Alliance backed the bill, which was tabled by People Before Profit TD Gino Kenny.
The Dublin Mid-West deputy said yesterday that the bill would ensure doctors could approve cannabis to people suffering from chronic pain, epilepsy, cancer and multiple sclerosis. He told RTÉ's 'Six One News' that although people had reservations, he believed the move would seriously help people in need.
"Medicinal cannabis works for people; sometimes they just come to their end of the line for orthodox medicine," Mr Kenny said.
