A patient survey has been launched by the Cannabis Industry Council, to coincide with Medical Cannabis Awareness Week (1-7 November). Both current and former prescription cannabis patients can complete the survey here.
The survey results will better enable the Cannabis Industry Council to understand the challenges patients face, and to advocate for improved outcomes with industry and government.
The questions cover a range of topics including:
- How the quality, cost and reliability of supply compares in the prescription and illicit market
- Patient interactions with public bodies (e.g. police, local authorities)
- Travelling with a prescription
The questions were developed in collaboration with patient groups and advocates. The survey will take 5 – 10 minutes, and the responses are completely confidential. No individual data will be shared or published. The survey will close on 30 November.
