Relative to the classification of certain controlled substances. Mental Health, Substance Use and Recovery.

AI Summary

This bill amends the classification of certain controlled substances under Massachusetts law. Specifically, it removes from Class B (a controlled substance classification) coca leaves and extracts of coca leaves from which cocaine, ecgonine, and their derivatives have been removed. The bill also adds cocaine, ecgonine, and their salts, isomers, and derivatives to the list of substances classified under Class B. This change in classification reflects updates to the understanding and regulation of these substances.
