Introduction-

The International Narcotics Control Board (“INCB”) released its “Report of the International Narcotics Control Board for 2022 (E/INCB/2022/1)” (the “Report”), which dedicates an entire section to discussing the “Analysis of the trend to legalize the non-medical use of cannabis." In the report, the INCB argues that legalizing the non-medical and non-scientific use of cannabis (“Regulation”) has failed to achieve the benefits to society that were intended through such legalization. In its attempt to deliver evidence of this failure, INCB instead provides ample evidence to the contrary—that legalization and regulation work.
