Italy: The government has proposed an amendment to Bill 1038, which aims to extend tobacco legislation to those parts of the hemp plant that can be smoked or heated for inhalation. It would establish a tax framework and introduce an authorisation system through the Customs and Monopolies Agency (ADM) for the sale of smokable or inhalable hemp products, which would be restricted to authorised tax warehouses and state monopolies’ retail outlets. It would also ban sales to under-18s, as well as long-distance and vending machine sales, and advertising. It also aims to extend the smoking ban and impose notification and labelling requirements for herbal smoking products.
