More important, though, in my opinion, is that I feel that this bill—and I'm most concerned—would increase suffering. What we currently have in place enables people to access cannabis for pain, but, as has been described earlier, it can be extremely hard to access. We recognise that, but, unfortunately, what I see before me is a bill that would make it harder. Now, we know that there is extremely strong evidence that medicinal cannabis provides substantial benefit to some people experiencing pain, people for whom opioids like morphine and codeine just don't work—people like my late mother. My mother passed from metastatic breast cancer that had spread through her bones, and she was in an enormous amount of pain for the last few years of her life, but the pain that she experienced towards the very end, the last few months of her life, was intolerable and unrelievable. Most clinicians standing here today will be aware of quite how painful some of the conditions that your patients will experience can be, and you'll also be aware that, sometimes, no amount of morphine or opioids can touch the sides of the pain that they're experiencing. Ironically, a drug such as cannabis, even though we would consider it to be lighter in its effect, and certainly has fewer side effects, can be much more effective.
