The Alabama Medical Cannabis Commission announced it had received more than 90 applications for medical cannabis business licenses. The commission received 38 applications for integrated facility licenses, 18 applications returned for dispensary licenses and 12 applications for a processor license. In addition, 12 applications were received for cultivator license, 11 applications for secure transport and 3 state testing laboratory applications. The review, evaluation and scoring of applications will serve as the basis of the Commission’s decision regarding the award of licenses. The Commission is expected to award licenses in each category at its June 12, 2023 meeting. Once business licenses have been issued, physicians may begin the certification process to recommend medical cannabis to qualified patients. |
