The Cannabis for Private Purposes Bill 2020 in South Africa allows for the possession and cultivation of cannabis for personal use by adults in private places.
According to the bill, an adult may possess up to 100 grams of cannabis and may cultivate up to 4 plants for personal use in a private place. The bill does not differentiate between immature and flowering plants, and the limit is set at a maximum of 4 plants.
The bill also allows for the transportation of cannabis in public by an adult, but only if it is done discreetly and the cannabis is in a secure container or in the trunk of a vehicle. However, the bill does not specify whether an adult may transport a flowering plant in public or whether it must be immature.
It is important to note that the Cannabis for Private Purposes Bill 2020 is currently under consideration in Parliament and has not yet been passed into law. Any provisions in the bill are subject to change as it goes through the legislative process.
