This bill establishes the "Intoxicating Cannabinoid Control Act".
The bill defines "CBD", "Cannabinoid", "Department", "Hemp", "Intoxicating cannabinoid", "Intoxicating cannabinoid product", and "Marijuana", as pertaining to the Act.
The bill specifies that hemp, industrial hemp, and hemp-derived products that do not contain intoxicating cannabinoids will not be considered marijuana and must not be subject to the legal framework contained in the Missouri Constitution.
This bill specifies that any intoxicating cannabinoid, in any form and from any source, is subject to the regulations promulgated by the Department of Health and Senior Services under Article XIV of the Constitution and treated as marijuana under such regulations and sold only at dispensaries licensed by the Department.
No person or entity, aside from a comprehensive marijuana dispensary facility, medical marijuana dispensary facility, or microbusiness dispensary facility licensed under the provisions of the Constitution, will conduct business or carry on, under a name that contains as part of the name the word "dispensary" or any similar word.
This bill is similar to HCS HB 1781 and SB 984 (2024).
