A charge against medicinal cannabis advocate Tony Bower of Kempsey - TopicsExpress



          

A charge against medicinal cannabis advocate Tony Bower of Kempsey was adjourned until August 14 in the Port Macquarie District Court today. Mr Bower faces going back to jail for growing plants to make cannabis tincture for patients across the northern rivers and Australia. He supplies about 150 people with his tincture, from children suffering epilepsy to cancer patients dealing with nausea from chemotherapy. He does not charge for the medicine. Despite registering his company, Mullaways Medical Cannabis, and applying for a licence to operate from the NSW government, his application has been mired in bureaucracy and political indecision for more than five years. Last year he was charged by police with possessing about 200 cannabis plants and was sentenced to 12 months in prison.
