Can Cannabis Save My Child?
The motion
That the Parliament welcomes the BBC Disclosure documentary, Can cannabis save my child?, which recognises the plight of Karen Grey, whose son, Murray, has drug-resistant epilepsy and is unable to access the drug, Bedrolite, through the NHS; commends the documentary’s support for Karen’s cause, recognising a pressing need to consider what it sees as the overwhelming evidence that Bedrolite has the potential to halt Murray’s seizures; applauds the programme’s efforts to highlight the obstructions in getting a Bedrolite NHS prescription; acknowledges Karen and Murray’s ongoing struggle, and hopes that the documentary will generate substantial public and political support to facilitate change.
