Cannabis in the Solomon Islands
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The production, sale and possession of cannabis for medicinal or recreational purposes is illegal in the Solomon Islands.[1] Offenders receive a fine of up to $100,000 or imprisonment for up to ten years.[2][3] A 2011 survey of young people found that 16.1% of males and 11.1% of females had ever used cannabis.[4]

The Solomon Islands, like other island nations in the West Pacific, is utilised as a staging point in the illicit drug trade between South East Asia and Australasia. Cannabis is also illicitly cultivated here.[5]
