Cannabis Licensing Authority launches fee-free special permit programmes for traditional ganja growers in Kingston
The Jamaica Information Service reported that the Cannabis Licensing Authority (CLA) launched its Medical Cannabis Special Permit Programmes at the AC Hotel by Marriott Kingston on Thursday 16 April 2026, under the Dangerous Drugs (Cannabis Licensing) (Interim) (Amendment) Regulations, 2025. CLA chief executive Farrah Blake said the Special Community Permit allows traditional and small-scale farmers to enter the industry together as a community or group. She said the Cultivator's Transitional Special Permit gives small-scale farmers two years to reach at least Tier One cultivator status. She said no fee is charged for either permit. Minister of State Delano Seiveright spoke at the launch.
