DON BRASH CALLS FOR DECRIMINALISATION OF CANNABIS

Act leader Don Brash is calling for the decriminalisation of
cannabis.

He says prohibition of the drug hasn't worked, and policing it costs
millions of tax payer dollars and clogs up the court system.

He's told TVNZ's Q&A programme there are other ways to restrict the
use of marijuana.

"It's estimated thousands of New Zealanders use cannabis on a fairly
regular basis, 6,000 are prosecuted every year, a $100million of tax
payers money is spent to police this law," says My Brash.
