Leaders of the traffic light factions have agreed on a draft for cannabis legalization. Home cultivation and possession of certain amounts of the drug will be permitted for adults from April 1, 2024.

Clubs for joint cultivation should be possible on July 1st. The law could come as early as April 1st, the three parliamentary group vice-chairmen said. However, the schedule is tight: the law must first pass through the Bundestag and then the Federal Council before it comes into force.
