Since April 2024, the legal status of cannabis has changed decisively – the narcotic classified as a “minor drug” has been partially legalised. The question of the extent to which possession of marijuana is criminally relevant now depends, among other things, on the quantity possessed and the purpose of possession (e.g. in the case of medicinal cannabis). Consumption is also not permitted without restriction, so it is crucial to know the details of partial legalisation to be able to assess the boundaries between legal and non-legal use of cannabis.
