For [Professor] Iversen though, this is still stretching the evidence. “What the data show is that the risk applies to a small minority of young people who start smoking cannabis at a very young age,” he says. “Are we going to change the law for the benefit of a vulnerable minority? A small minority of people are vulnerable to liver damage if they drink even a small amount of alcohol, but we haven’t changed the law to protect them.”
