Debate 🇺🇾 Uruguay

Uruguay's lower house sets up a drug commission

Two years after the return to democracy, the Chamber of Representatives created a Special Commission on Drug Addiction, prompted mainly by a rise in cannabis use. It reviewed drug policy for years; the first change to the law came in 1998.[1]

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