An evidence-based synthesis is being carried out by the Health Research Board on behalf of the Department of Health. This work is expected to be completed by May/June this year. A clinical review group will then be established to complete an assessment of the Health Research Board report to see if there is evidence to support the recommendation of any other clinical indications to the Medical Cannabis Access Programme.
