Pennsylvania's interim budget makes a notable change to the state's 2016 Medical Marijuana Act .
Tucked away in the 53-page bill that appropriates $25.8 billion in spending to carry government operations through Nov. 30, lawmakers added a provision that stipulates how revoked permits – of which only 25 exist – for marijuana growers will be redistributed. The 50 dispensary permits also controlled by the state are not mentioned in the language.
The provision states that if a grower's permit is "surrendered, revoked or otherwise forfeited" because of misrepresented information on its application, the department shall issue the permit to "the next most qualified applicant in the same region according to the department's ranking and scoring in the application phase during which the initial permit was issued."
