"Based on industry feedback, and its own experience, the MMED has determined that the majority of the existing medical marijuana rules ... are in need of amendment," the announcement states.MMED spokeswoman Julie Postlethwait said the division will hold three public forums to discuss new rules, with the first coming Jan. 11."We're trying to be very inclusive," Postlethwait said. "We're going to be reworking the rules and amending them, which is very common, especially when you have such a new program."But while Postlethwait said the rewrite is routine, it comes as serious questions are being raised about whether existing rules are enforceable. The rules are receiving extra scrutiny now that Colorado voters have passed Amendment 64, a measure that legalizes marijuana sales at stores intended to be regulated similarly to medical-marijuana dispensaries.SnippedComplete Article: http://www.denverpost.com/news/marijuana/ci_22159436/Newshawk: The GCWSource: Denver Post (CO)Author: John Ingold, Denver Post Published: December 10, 2012Copyright: 2012 The Denver Post Website: http://www.denverpost.com/Contact: openforum denverpost.comCannabisNews Medical Marijuana Archiveshttp://cannabisnews.com/news/list/medical.shtml Home Comment Email Register Recent Comments Help Comment #6 posted by Hope on December 10, 2012 at 14:51:53 PT :0) TroutMask, The GCW, and all!
