Codifies certain cannabis packaging requirements; establishes offense for minor gaining access to improperly stored cannabis products.
This bill establishes new packaging requirements for cannabis products to prevent appeal to minors, prohibiting designs that might attract children (such as toys, cartoon characters, or candy-like features) and requiring clear consumer warnings with poison control contact information. It creates a new disorderly persons offense for individuals who know or should reasonably know that a minor (defined as under 16) is likely to gain access to improperly stored cannabis at their premises. The penalties for this offense mirror those for providing alcohol to minors. The bill also codifies existing packaging and labeling regulations from the Cannabis Regulatory Commission to ensure consistent safety standards.
