Hemp cultivation licences (FOI)

Request

I'm contacting the States of Jersey Ministry for Economic Development, Tourism, Sport and Culture to obtain a list of hemp and cannabis cultivation and manufacturing licenses. If possible, please include the company's name, license expiration date, and authorized activities.

Response

The numbers of current licences issued are:

Cannabis - 2 

Hemp - 2

The remaining information you have requested is exempt under Article 42(a) (Law enforcement) of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 as it is considered that its disclosure into the public domain would likely create an opportunity for criminal activity.
