盧森堡政府在星期五宣布成為了歐洲第一個可合法種植、使用大麻的國家。
Under the new legislation, adults over 18 in Luxembourg will be allowed to use c
annabis, and to grow up to four plants per household, which would make it the fi
rst country in Europe to fully legalize the production and consumption of the dr
ug.
在最新成立的法規下，十八歲以上的盧森堡成人允許合法使用大麻，且得在家戶中種植最多
四株大麻株。此法規將使盧森堡成為歐洲第一個大麻完全合法生產、使用的國家。
Decriminalization will also dramatically lower the current fines for possession
of the drug to between $29 and $581 for possession of three grams or less, down
from the current fines of $291 to $2,910.
大麻的除罪化使得原有持三公克以下罰鍰，從291歐元到2910歐元間，下降到29歐元到581歐

n the quantity or levels of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive compone
nt of cannabis.
大麻籽的交易適用的新法規，將不限制數量或是四氫大麻酚含量。

e the currently illegal cannabis market.
政府這次的修法目的在於打擊毒品相關犯罪以及黑市的毒品交易。監管機構將能夠監管現有

It puts Luxembourg, a small landlocked with a population of just over 600,000 pe
ople, at the forefront of a growing movement across the continent to relax canna
bis legislation.

m next year, after campaign groups managed to gather the required 500,000 signat
ures required to force a vote.

The consumption of cannabis is not criminalized under Italian law and marijuana
for medical purposes is permitted. However, buying, selling and mass cultivating
the herb is illegal and dealers could face up to 10 years in prison if convicte
d.
大麻的使用在義大利並非完全非法的，大麻得允用於醫療用途。但是，買賣、大規模栽種皆
面臨十年以上刑責。
If the public votes to decriminalize cannabis, the purchase, sale and cultivatio
n of the drug there will all become legal.
