Inside New Zealand: High Time?

8:30pm – Wednesday, July 13 on TV 3

The coverage on New Zealand TV is continuing to grow. Yesterday, Metiria Turei went on TV3′s morning news show to talk about medicinal cannabis, after Peter Davy was given 6 months home detention.

Next up, is a documentary that takes a look at the pros and cons of a change in the law.

Inside New Zealand: High Time? … investigates the facts and fallacies surrounding cannabis use in New Zealand and asks whether it’s time we made cannabis legal. Central to the story is Dakta Green, formerly known as Ken Morgan, who was an electorate chairman for the National Party and campaigner for Saturday Trading and Casinos before becoming an advocate for cannabis law reform.

He is leading the charge for cannabis to be legalised and has set up “The Daktory”, a warehouse in West Auckland that operates as a club for cannabis users where they can purchase and smoke the drug, as an example of how legalisation might work in the future. “The purpose of this club is to show my fellow New Zealanders that you have absolutely nothing to fear from people who are part of the cannabis culture,” says Green.

The documentary was filmed in part by Red Eye Productions, the valued Daktory film crew. However, they did not edit it.

Red Eye Productions have been unable to get a hold of the final cut. “The feature film will present the truth if the TV Show doesn’t,” a member told me earlier.
