The bill amends section 581.217 of the Florida Statutes to strengthen regulations on the manufacture, sale, and distribution of hemp and hemp extract products. It introduces a definition for "total delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol concentration," which sets specific limits for these products, and prohibits sales that are appealing to children. Businesses selling hemp products are required to maintain lab result records, comply with safety regulations, and undergo random inspections by the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Additionally, the bill bans the sale of hemp and hemp extracts in forms intended for smoking and restricts the locations of businesses selling these products near schools and daycare facilities.

The bill also establishes stricter advertising guidelines, requiring preapproval from the department and prohibiting marketing that could attract children or suggest health benefits. It outlines penalties for violations, including administrative fines and potential license revocation for repeated offenses. Furthermore, the bill addresses contraband regulations in correctional and detention facilities, specifying prohibited items and clarifying definitions related to portable communication devices. It allocates $2 million in nonrecurring funds from the General Revenue Fund to the Department of Law Enforcement for necessary testing equipment, with the act set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
