Scottish Conservative health spokesman Jackson Carlaw MSP said: Cannabis enjoys a reputation in some quarters as essentially being a safe drug. But we can see from these figures that clearly isn’t the case. Allowing the illegal substance that reputation can breed complacency among not only users, but authorities too. It accounts for almost double the hospital admissions as cocaine, and the five-year trend is certainly moving in the wrong direction. We have to break this relaxed attitude, and ensure that the hundreds who are hospitalised as a result of cannabis dont fall into a trap of believing what they are doing is a risk-free activity.
