The Association for the Cannabinoid Industry Launches New CBD Safety Certification Initiative
The ACI today outlined new plans for The ACI Safety Certification programme. Launched exactly one year before the FSA’s new safety regulations come into force, which excludes all CBD food products from sale in the UK without a validated Novel Foods application dossier.
Statement from ACI founder Steve Moore
It has been quite a start to 2020 across our sector, with significant regulatory developments in both the medicinal cannabis and the CBD wellness space.
