NSW adds mandatory education to a second cannabis caution

New South Wales amended its Cannabis Cautioning Scheme to require an education session for people receiving a second caution, replacing the original voluntary contact approach for that group. The amendment altered a police diversion programme while cannabis offences remained on the books.[1]

Listed for context. No score change is recorded for Australia here.
