A measure liberalizing cannabis rules in Germany has been proposed. The legislation would decriminalize possession and allow recreational marijuana sales for certain individuals.
Lauterbach had cautioned all along that the government would only proceed with its original plan if it got the green light from the EU.
The leaves of a growing cannabis plant are seen at the Cannabis Museum in Berlin, Germany, on April 12, 2023. The German government presented scaled-back plans to liberalize the country's rules on cannabis. This fall, the government plans to map out the next step: five-year tests of regulated commercial supply chains in select regions. Lauterbach said details, including which regions would be chosen, have yet to be thrashed out.The government wants to have the pilot projects scientifically evaluated.

Germany launches plan to relax rigid family name systemGermany’s justice minister has launched plans to relax the country’s strict restrictions on family names — for example, allowing couples to take double-barreled surnames and pass them on to their children. The minister said as he published the draft legislation on Tuesday that the current system “is about as up-to-date as a coal stove and as flexible as concrete.” The legislation, which is supposed to take effect at the beginning of 2025, still requires the approval of the Cabinet and Parliament. It is one of several social reform projects that Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s socially liberal three-party governing coalition agreed to embark on when it took office in December 2021.
