CannabisNewsBreaks – LiveWire Ergogenics Inc. (LVVV) Set to Benefit Upon Senate Passing SAFE Banking Act Legislation

LiveWire Ergogenics (OTC: LVVV) is diligently watching the progress of the SAFE Banking Act, which would permit banks and credit unions to offer financial services to legal cannabis businesses once passed by the Senate. A recent article discussing the company reads, “In December 2018 the U.S. Farm Bill was passed, which de-scheduled hemp as a Schedule 1 drug, although the use, sale and possession of cannabis with over 0.3 percent THC remains illegal under Federal law. Despite that reclassification, most financial institutions continue to avoid providing services to businesses operating in the cannabis space. . . . The Secure and Fair Enforcement (SAFE) Banking Act of 2019, HR19-1595, could change that. The bill was passed by the House of Representatives in September and then sent to the Senate, where it was referred to the Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs. According to the official summary by the Congressional Research Service, the SAFE Banking Act prohibits federal banking regulators from punishing a financial institution for offering financial services to a legal marijuana-related business. . . . Passage of the SAFE Banking Act in the Senate and signing of the bill by the President will open access to broad financial services in the multibillion-dollar marijuana industry (http://cnw.fm/h8HqV) and would clearly give legal and vertically integrated operators such as LiveWire a significant boost.”

420 with CNW – Federal Agency Says Those with Drug Convictions Can Work at Credit Unions

The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) is allowing people previously convicted of drug possession to work at credit unions.

In July, the NCUA board announced the proposed changes to their employment regulations, which allows an exception for low-level drug offenders. On Monday, the agency published its ruling in the Federal Register and said that that it examined the comments submitted by the public and that the changes will be enacted into law.

The published notice states that although the NCUA board is not overlooking the impact of drug possession and use on public health, the board believes that people previously convicted of simple drug offenses pose less risk to insured credit unions. The notice further states that when drug convictions are handed out on people in disadvantaged communities, they are bound to experience several collateral consequences.

NCUA further wrote that people convicted of non-violent drug possession offenses are already suffering from extrajudicial consequences such as employment bans, loss of financial aid, loss of voting rights, they cannot access public housing, and are disqualified from occupational licenses as well as denial of public assistance. It also noted that people of color are the most affected by drug convictions.

The published notice further indicates that there remains confusion and uncertainty regarding marijuana offenses such that although it is now legal in many states, federally, marijuana is still illegal.

In certain circumstances, drug offenses are classified as de minimus, which means that those previously convicted do not have to tender a unique application to the NCUA board to be considered for employment.

For a person to qualify for a de minimus, he or she must not have other convictions that require a ban, and they must have been convicted of an offense that does not involve trafficking or manufacturing of Schedule 1 substances. Besides, a minimum of five years must have passed since the conviction.

Most of the public commented on the policy that supports the exception of individuals with a single conviction for simple drug possession, citing that they pose minimal risks to insured credit unions. NCUA further said that the majority of the commenters supported the policy and said that due to the uncertainty surrounding state and federal laws, the exception is appropriate.

NCUA also wrote that some of the comments agreed with the board’s observation that the drug convictions unduly affect people of color, and the convicted individual suffers extrajudicial consequences.

As of January 2, 2020, people who are convicted of petty theft, false identification, and isolated minor offenses would not tender a unique application under the new changes.

In August, NCUA chairman said that before the vote, the House had previously approved a bill protecting banks and credit unions transacting with the marijuana industry from federal regulators as long as they complied with the state laws. The agency also clarified that financial institutions are also now working with hemp businesses since the crop was federally legalized.

Industry experts are in agreement that the entire marijuana industry, including players like Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQB: PLPRF) and HTC Extraction Systems (TSX.V: HTC), welcomes the announcement by the NCUA regarding the employability of persons with minor marijuana convictions on their criminal history.

420 with CNW – Campaigners Urge EU to Adopt Medical Marijuana Standards Like Germany’s

According to the newly-born European Medicinal Cannabis Association (EUMCA), businesses across Europe should adopt the good practices being implemented by Germany in their medical marijuana industry.

EUMCA was established recently, and it is taking its first stride in the Brussels bubble by advocating for a medical marijuana regulatory framework that could be implemented by the EU member states.

Although medical marijuana is well developed in some of the EU member countries, only standards that cut across all the EU member states can ensure that patients across Europe access the same rules.

EUMCA said that having different laws governing the prescribing of marijuana-related medicine across the EU member countries could result in a problem when patients are traveling abroad and need to access treatment.

The secretary general of EUMCA, Sita Schubert, said that the primary goal of the association is to inform the national and EU institutions of the potential of medical marijuana treatment.

The reason why most doctors are cautious around medical marijuana is the lack of clinical trials. However, Schubert said that most often, health professionals and legislators are just not familiar with medical marijuana.

The socialist MEP, Miriam Dalli, said that investors need a robust EU regulatory framework that would assure them of stability and give suffering patients peace of mind.

According to Schubert, the German regulatory approach provides a quality and safe market for the marijuana-based products produced in the country.

The German parliament approved legislation that allowed patients easy access to marijuana products for therapeutic purposes in January, 2017.

Patients registered to receive medical cannabis treatment were 1000 before the changes in the law, but after the law was approved, the number of patients increased to 142,000 in Germany.

The National Cannabis Association in Germany, Deutscher Hanfverband (DHV), estimates that the number of patients on health insurance receiving medical marijuana treatment is approximately 50,000-60,000, and this makes Germany the third-largest market for medical marijuana products.

Several European countries such as Malta, Czech Republic, Italy, the Netherlands, and the UK have developed policies giving patients fair access to medical cannabis.

In 2018, the statutory health insurance providers in Germany reported revenue of close to €70 million ($77.5 million) for medical marijuana products. However, EUMCA argues that without a regulatory framework that cuts across the EU, some demand for medical cannabis in Europe could be unmet. The association also noted that the drug is both life-changing and life-saving.

According to the EMCDDA (EU Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction), patients’ interest in cannabinoids to treat several medical conditions has been on the rise in the past 20 years. These medical conditions include anxiety disorders, pain, cancer, depression, insomnia, and neurological disorders.

EUMCA warned that when the patients are denied access, they can access treatment through the black market, where no regulators are overseeing the quality and safety standards of the products. Before being distributed, medical marijuana must be produced and tested under the European GMP as well as practicing good distribution practices, such as certification for warehousing and distribution.

EUMCA is open to working with big companies (Tilray and Pinaxia) and small companies (Cannaflos) to get medical marijuana to the level of the EU.

Schubert said that marijuana companies should speak using one ethical voice. She further said that since the future of medical marijuana is set, people with the same medical marijuana ethics should join the EUMCA.

It is believed that this level of advocacy is appealing to cannabis industry players like The Green Organic Dutchman Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) and SinglePoint Inc. (OTCQB: SING) in North America who want to see uniform standards become a reality here as well.
