Marijuana Laws & Legislation for Hawera

Marijuana is legal for medical use in New Zealand, with cannabis-based treatments available for patients with specific conditions, such as chronic pain or cancer, as of 2025. Medical cannabis has been legal since 2018, and access is granted through a prescription system. In 2020, New Zealand held a referendum on recreational marijuana, but the proposal to fully legalize marijuana for recreational use was narrowly defeated. Despite this, marijuana decriminalization continues to be a topic of debate. In certain regions, possession of small amounts of cannabis is treated with fines or warnings rather than criminal prosecution. Cannabis cultivation for personal use is still illegal, but medical cannabis production and research continue to expand.

Please note that marijuana laws are subject to change. For the most current information, consult your countries official resources or legal counsel.
