Medicinal cannabis can be legally prescribed by doctors in all States and Territories in Australia. There are slight variations on legislation from state to state.
Recreational cannabis remains illegal in most States and Territories, however, in late 2019 the ACT passed laws which allow residents aged 18 years and older to grow cannabis plants at home. There is a limit of two plants per person and four per household, and each person is allowed to be in possession of no more than 50 grams of dried cannabis.
