Adults get cannabis from their own four home-grown plants: possession of 30 g of cannabis or 5 g of resin is ordinarily exempt, and private use is generally lawful.[@act24,wiki] There are no shops — the 2022 licensing Act was never proclaimed — and supply stays criminal.[@cca22,wiki] Smoking in public brings a TT$2,000 ticket, and school buses and children's-activity premises carry five-year sentences even for small amounts.[@act24]

There is no legal recreational market. Since March 2020 two ounces or less brings at most an EC$500 fine with no arrest, and accepting the police measures discharges liability without a record.[@drugs_amend] People may smoke at home and in Rastafari places of worship; public smoking stays an offence.[@drugs_amend] Growing for personal use was not legalised — cultivation needs a Medicinal Cannabis Authority licence — and supply remains criminal outside the licensed system.[@mci_act,wiki]
