Cayman’s Law Reform Commission opened consultation on replacing criminal penalties for personal cannabis possession and use, asking about limits of 30 grams of dried cannabis, 150 grams of wet cannabis and four plants per household.[1][2] It also asked whether old minor convictions should be cleared, arguing that criminal records can limit people’s economic opportunities.[2] The review followed the 2025 referendum and invited comments by 1 September 2026; in October the premier expected the final report and supporting legislation in November or December.[1][3]
