context › recreational › text

There is no legal recreational supply. Personal-use possession brings three months to two years or a fine, though users often end with a fine or community service; growing for personal use falls under the same provision.[@dr,lc] A wrinkle: the plant and resin are 'risk drugs' but THC as a compound is 'high-risk', which can raise the penalty.[@dr,lc] Supply is trafficking: two to seven years.[@lc]

context › hemp › text

No fibre-hemp THC limit was established by the retained sources, but the law's edges leave room: seeds fall outside the criminal law because they contain no THC and are sold openly, and CBD products with negligible THC circulate.[@lc,cms] Only medical cultivation is licensed, under Law 339/2005 with strict authorisation and supervision.[@cms]
