The Misuse of Drugs (Amendment) (England, Wales and Scotland) Regulations 2020
These Regulations amend the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/3998) to provide for a specified cannabis-based medicine called Epidyolex to be placed in Schedule 5 of the Regulations. The effect of this is that the specified medicine is exempt from the prohibitions on import, export and possession under sections 3 and 5 of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971.
