Provides for the establishment of a new regulatory body, the Cannabis Licensing Authority, which will be responsible for establishing a lawful, regulated hemp and medicinal ganja industry. The Cannabis Licensing Authority will, with the approval of the Minister responsible for justice, make Regulations treating with (among other things) procedures and criteria for applying for and retention of licenses, permits and other authorizations for cultivation, processing, distribution, sale and other handling of ganja for medical, scientific and therapeutic purposes. The Bill specifically requires that the Regulations must be compliant with Jamaica’s international obligations. The Minister with responsibility for investment and commerce is authorised to give policy directions to the Cannabis Licensing Authority, and it is the intention to ensure that the licensing regime is as inclusive as possible so as to allow participation in the industry by small farmers and other small and medium sized businesses.

Abstract
A new cultivar of medicinal cannabis has been bred that renders large amounts of cannabidiolic acid (mg/gram ground flower weight)... greater than 10%. The cultivar moved from an outdoor to indoor environment produced similar levels of cannabidiolic (CBD) and similar cannabinoid profiles. Reproduced asexually, the same (greater than 10%) cannabidiolic acid amounts were rendered and this remains constant crop to crop.
THC levels do not change between 20 and 30% of that of the CBD-A
concentration.
High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) determines Cannabinoid profiles where the amounts of the three most abundant cannabinoids (tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabinol and cannabidiol) and their acids are quantified. The cannabinoid profile relates directly to the physiological effects of the plant as a medicine. In addition, a genetic fingerprint of the strain has been generated using gel electrophoresis. Strains high in cannabidiolic acid are rare since commercial breeding has led to strains with large concentrations of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and very little cannabidiol making the strain in question rare. Hayley's Comet provides a unique cannabinoid profile containing large concentrations of CBD-A making it useful for medicaments for seizure disorder, pain and inflammation.
