  • Cannabis Regulation in Europe: Country Report Denmark
    COUNTRY REPORT | February 2019 Cannabis Regulation in Europe: Country Report Denmark Maj Nygaard-Christensen and Vibeke Asmussen Frank Aarhus University ideas into movement Introduction This report examines policy and practice relating to the regulation of cannabis in Denmark. It was produced as part of a study of cannabis regulation models in Europe, funded by the European Commission and led by the Transnational Institute in Amsterdam. The broader study examines and compares experiences from European countries’ experiments with cannabis regulation, including trial proposals for legalisation or decriminalisation of cannabis use, with a particular focus on larger cities in six countries. Denmark has no legal regulation regarding recreational cannabis use, and possession, production, import/export, and buying and selling of cannabis is illegal (Dahl and Frank 2012: 13). This overview of the legal and policy framework for the regulation of cannabis first introduces the policy shifts in cannabis control in Denmark, reviews the political positions on possibilities for legalisation or decriminalisation, and the international context influencing these. It then offers an analysis of how policy and police crackdowns on the open-air cannabis market in Christiania in Copenhagen led to a dispersal and restructuring of the market, with the entry of new criminal gangs. This part of the report indicates an increasingly repressive cannabis policy in Denmark, although there are some openings in the form of a trial for medicinal cannabis commencing in 2018, and a proposed model for legalised cannabis in Copenhagen Municipality. From Tolerant to Repressive Cannabis Control Cannabis falls under the 1955 Euphoriant Substances Act, which is used for minor offences that can be punished with up to a two-year prison term, and the penal code’s §191 from 1969, which refers to the organised sale and possession of larger amounts of narcotics.

  • Changes in the Composition of Cannabis from 2000–2017 in Denmark: Analysis of Confiscated Samples of Cannabis Resin
    Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology © 2019 American Psychological Association 2019, Vol. 27, No. 4, 402–411 1064-1297/19/$12.00 http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/pha0000303 Changes in the Composition of Cannabis From 2000–2017 in Denmark: Analysis of Confiscated Samples of Cannabis Resin Kristine Rømer Thomsen, Christian Lindholst, Lotte Ask Reitzel Birgitte Thylstrup, and Sinikka Kvamme University of Copenhagen Aarhus University Martin Worm-Leonhard Amir Englund University of Southern Denmark King’s College London Tom P. Freeman Morten Hesse University of Bath Aarhus University Globally, recent studies report increases in ⌬-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentration in seized samples of cannabis for human consumption. This is important, because use of cannabis with a high concentration of THC has been linked to a number of adverse health outcomes. The objective of this study was to assess recent changes in the composition of seized cannabis resin in Denmark by (a) examining THC concentration in samples from Danish forensic laboratories from 2000 to 2017 (N ϭ 430) and (b) examining cannabidiol (CBD) concentration and the THC:CBD concentration ratio in samples from the forensic laboratory in Western Denmark from 2008 to 2017 (N ϭ 147). Cannabis resin samples were analyzed using a gas chromatographic analysis with flame ionization detection quantifying the total THC and CBD concentration. Results showed that the THC concentration increased 3-fold from 2000 (mean: 8.3%) to 2017 (mean: 25.3%). Significant increases occurred in all areas of Denmark. After 2011, we found a dramatic increase in cannabis resin samples with high THC concentration and the near disappearance of cannabis resin samples with medium- and low THC concentration.
