AI Summary
This bill amends the Rhode Island Cannabis Act to remove the requirement that the amounts of certain cannabinoids, which are compounds produced by cannabis plants that have medical and psychotropic effects, be expressed as dry-weight percentages. Instead, the cannabinoid profile, which includes the amounts of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabidiol, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, and cannabidiolic acid in a cannabis product, will be expressed in a form and manner determined by the Cannabis Control Commission, the state agency responsible for regulating cannabis businesses. This change aims to modernize how cannabinoid content is reported and will take effect immediately upon passage.
