The Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis Commission (AGLC) has released a bulletin announcing a change in rules that allows licensed marijuana producers to give samples to stores and their representatives.
“This bulletin is to advise all registered cannabis representatives and retail cannabis store licensees of important amendments to the Cannabis Representative Handbook (CRH) and the Retail Cannabis Store Handbook (RCSH)”, said the AGLC on their website.
“Effective immediately, Section 4.3 of the CRH and 4.2 and 6.3 of the RCSH have been amended to permit cannabis representatives the ability to provide up to 3.5 grams of dried cannabis (or equivalency) as sample product. Samples provided must be for marketing purposes and are for licensee use only.”
The amendment may be accessed on AGLC’s website at aglc.ca. Additional information regarding AGLC’s commitment to a modern regulatory environment that supports consumer choice, innovation and economic growth can be found on AGLC’s website at aglc.ca/modernization.
“Please familiarize yourself with the amended policies, and ensure all affected staff are notified of the new amendments”, says the AGLC
