    The Conservative Drug Policy Reform Group, Limited Suite 15.17 Citibase, 15th Floor Millbank Tower 21-24 Millbank, Westminster London SW1P 4QP The Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP The Prime Minister 10 Downing Street London SW1A 2AA 20 November 2020 Dear Prime Minister, As Chairman of the Conservative Drug Policy Reform Group, I am writing today with a comprehensive set of recommendations prepared by the CDPRG research team, to secure the future of the UK’s cannabidiol (CBD) industry. Though nascent, this industry is already valued at £300 million and it is predicted to grow to around £1 billion by 2025, equivalent to the entirety of the UK’s herbal supplement market in 2016. I am sure you will agree with me that this projected market growth, and the jobs, investment and R&D it attracts, needs safeguarding and stimulating rather than inhibiting. This fulfilment depends on the practicality of the legislations safeguarding this burgeoning industry, which is why I am writing to strongly recommend that the UK votes in favour of recommendations to be proposed on 02 December 2020 by the World Health Organisation at the 53rd United Nations Session on the Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND), of which the UK is a signatory. The WHO recommends adding the following footnote to the 1961 Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, to read: "Preparations containing predominantly cannabidiol and not more than 0.2 percent of delta-9- tetrahydrocannabinol [THC] are not under international control”. This harmonises with a ruling issued this week from the European Union that member states may not prohibit the marketing of CBD lawfully produced in other member states.

Jacob Birch CHAIRMAN’S REPORT After a decade with LGBT+ Conservatives, more than half of them in the chair, it’s time to hand-on the baton I’m not disappearing completely. One of my proudest achievements here has been the LGBT+ Conservatives Candidates’ Fund, which has supported so many people into parliament and raised tens of thousands of pounds. As the fund matures it is moving into a new governance structure, and I hope to play a role in that future. I am thrilled to be succeeded by Elena Bunbury. I know that she will bring new energy to the organisation, and I hope it will continue to thrive under her leadership. I am so grateful to everyone who has supported me on this journey. In particular Emma Warman, Matthew Green and John Cope who have provided wise counsel as Deputy Chairman. To Sean Anstee who has transformed the finances of the organisation.

  • The Prime Minister, HC 833
    Liaison Committee Oral evidence: The Prime Minister, HC 833 Tuesday 20 December 2016 Ordered by the House of Commons to be published on 20 Dec 2016. Watch the meeting Members present: Mr Andrew Tyrie (Chair); Hilary Benn; Mr Clive Betts; Crispin Blunt; Andrew Bridgen; Sir William Cash; Yvette Cooper; Meg Hillier; Mr Bernard Jenkin; Dr Julian Lewis; Stephen Metcalfe; Mr Laurence Robertson; Dame Rosie Winterton; Pete Wishart; Dr Sarah Wollaston; Mr Iain Wright. Questions 1-129 Witness [I]: Rt Hon Mrs Theresa May Examination of witness Witness: Rt Hon Mrs Theresa May Q1 Chair: Prime Minister, thank you very much for coming to give evidence to us this afternoon. We are very grateful, and I think Parliament is also very grateful, that you are agreeing to do these sessions. Could I just have confirmation that you are going to continue the practice of your predecessor of three a year? Mrs May: Yes, indeed, Chairman. I am happy to do three attendances at this Committee a year. Q2 Chair: Logically, bearing in mind the very big events likely to take place at the end of March, it might be sensible to push scrutiny of the triggering, or proposed triggering, of article 50, and any accompanying Government documents, to after the spring recess. Then we will have two meetings: one right at the beginning and one towards the end of the summer session. Mrs May: That may very well be sensible, Chairman. I suggest that perhaps the Clerk and my office will be able to talk about possible dates. Obviously the Committee will have a view as to when they wish to do it.

  • The Costs of Replacing Trident
    The costs of replacing Trident ND has calculated that replacing Trident, Britain’s nuclear weapons system, will end up costing at least £205 billion, and that’s Cbefore taking into account that Ministry of Defence projects typically go well over budget. The costs of replacing Trident Manufacturing four successor submarines £31 billion 1 Contingency fund £10 billion 2 Missile extension programme £350 million 3 Replacement warheads £4 billion 4 Infrastructure capital costs £4 billion 5 In service costs £142 billion 6 Conventional military forces directly assigned to support Trident £1 billion 7 Decommissioning £13 billion 8 TOTAL £205 billion Parliament voted in July 2016 to go ahead with building new submarines, the delivery vehicles for the nuclear missiles. In its National Security Strategy and Strategic Defence and Security Review, published in November 2015, the government announced a huge increase in the estimated cost of these submarines to £31 billion. Additionally, a contingency fund of £10 billion was allocated to the project. The UK leases the missiles for the nuclear weapons system from the United States and will participate in that country’s missile life extension programme so that they can be used until the early 2040s. As set out in the government’s 2006 White Paper on ‘The Future of the United Kingdom's Nuclear Deterrent’ , this will cost £250 million, or £350 million in today’s prices. The 2006 White Paper also stated that the current warhead will last into the 2020s and provided for up to £3 billion for the possible future refurbishment or replacement of the warhead.
