DanCann Pharma A/S: It's official: A permanent scheme for medical cannabis in Denmark

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, 02 December 2021 - DanCann Pharma A/S (SS: DANCAN) ("DanCann Pharma"), a Danish company powered by cannabinoids is hereby proud to announce that that there was broad political support for the proposal to make the current Pilot Programme to a permanent scheme. The scheme was adopted exclusively with yes votes (102-0).

It has been agreed that the Pilot Programme will be extended by a further four years with regard to the possibility for doctors to prescribe medical cannabis to patients. In addition, it has been agreed that the Pilot Programme will be made permanent with regard to the companies' ability to manufacture cannabis for medical use. The purpose of making the manufacturing part permanent is to create peace of mind and security for the investments made in the industry.

- We are very pleased that the scheme for the manufacturing of medical cannabis has been made permanent, as it is in principle a safeguarding of our business basis and our existence. And then it actually means something when the proposal is voted through with 102-0, because it shows us that we are dealing with an area that politicians, authorities and NGOs really want to be successful, says Jeppe Krog Rasmussen, CEO of DanCann Pharma.

The new agreement is good news for the entire Danish medical cannabis industry and the ecosystem, as it will probably attract further investment and stimulate the positive wave that is currently going on in the industry and which will help make Denmark a leading nation in the medical cannabis field.

- We are engaged in a lot of exciting and ambitious activities, and even though we probably expected a positive statement from the politicians, there is of course always a little uncertainty. Now it is official that the industry - and we as a company - can calm down and start creating further investments, development and earnings, states Jeppe Krog Rasmussen.

With the decision to make Danish manufacturing of medical cannabis permanent after the expiry of the current Pilot Programme, Denmark formally continues its ambition to become a leading player in medical cannabis with ambitions to serve both the domestic market and international markets.
