This is clearly the case by only allowing those in the ACT legal access to medicinal cannabis and oils, and not allowing the rest of the states of Australia who need scripts, and access to medicinal cannabis oil/tinctures, for serious debilitating neurological, and other disabilities, etc.
Doctors will not even put in a script, nor prescribe, when all else cannot help nor the medical profession offer help medicine-wise.
While one or two doctors may do it, but only if you have epilepsy/MS/or cancers, how can they be allowed to go against their own rulings put in place under the Discrimination Act.
These same governments will prosecute those outside of the ACT who may order MCO from ACT legal channels to treat their illness, and/or disabilities.
Why is there one set of laws for the general public, and don't apply to governments' decisions in this case?
They put in place, but what's the use of the new special access scheme for doctors to apply, etc, and others for unregistered cannabis medicines, when the medical practitioners will not even consider it?
And this is coming across from many people trying many doctors, and the majority of doctors are all against it.
The town of Port Macquarie is one of many of these.
