Have the new laws been put in to effect? Have any of the shops been closed? If not, does anyone know when they have to close?

In that article it says:

An amount of 200.000 euro had been offered to the political party that would be able to convince an independent court of the positive effects of a ban on cannabis.

Surely that is just a bribe?

I think the money was from the Cannabis College if i remember rightly as they were so confident that there are no positive effects if a ban came in to place. So it was more a 'fuck you' than anything else
