Opportunity for Public Comment: Rulemaking Engagement Survey
The Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) is seeking your input! Their seventh public input survey is now available. This survey, which is the final survey associated with OCM's initial rulemaking engagement, will concentrate on medical cannabis and the patient registry program. Deadline to provide input is Feb. 26.
This input will be used in drafting rules for the new cannabis industry in Minnesota. As part of the first phase of rulemaking engagement, OCM will gather input through surveys on a variety of topics as the agency begins drafting rules to ensure the rulemaking process is accessible to the widest possible range of community members, advocates, and partners who want to help shape how the rules are drafted.
