kannustinlaskun

Kannustinlaskun, also known as the Kannustinlaskun Act, is a Finnish law that regulates the use of cannabis in Finland. The law was enacted in 2017 and came into effect in January 2018. It legalized the possession, cultivation, and consumption of cannabis for personal use by individuals aged 18 and over. The law also established a system for the licensing and regulation of cannabis cultivation and retail sales.

Under the Kannustinlaskun Act, individuals can possess up to 20 grams of cannabis or 10 grams of cannabis concentrate. They can also cultivate up to four cannabis plants per household. The law allows for the establishment of licensed cannabis cultivation facilities and retail stores, which must adhere to strict regulations regarding the quality, safety, and labeling of their products.

The Kannustinlaskun Act also includes provisions for the taxation and regulation of cannabis products. The Finnish Tax Administration is responsible for collecting taxes on cannabis products, which are then used to fund public services. The law also includes provisions for the enforcement of cannabis regulations, including penalties for violations of the law.

The Kannustinlaskun Act has been the subject of debate and controversy since its enactment. Critics have argued that the law has led to an increase in cannabis use and related problems, such as impaired driving and public health issues. Proponents of the law argue that it has helped to reduce the black market for cannabis and has provided a source of revenue for the Finnish government.

Overall, the Kannustinlaskun Act represents a significant shift in Finnish cannabis policy, reflecting a growing trend towards the legalization and regulation of cannabis in many countries around the world.
