Requires registration and regulation of certain hemp-derived cannabinoids manufactured and sold in this State.

This bill requires registration and regulation of hemp-derived cannabinoid products (like Delta-8 THC) currently sold unregulated in New Jersey. It establishes the Cannabis Regulatory Commission as the oversight body, mandating registration for manufacturers and retailers, requiring age verification (proof of age 21+), and implementing detailed labeling requirements that must include THC content, health warnings, and ingredient lists. The bill also requires these products to be tested by licensed laboratories to ensure safety, with packaging restrictions to prevent appeal to minors and child-resistant packaging requirements. Retailers have one year from enactment to comply with these new regulatory requirements, which aim to ensure product safety without banning these products.
