HB 2247 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to authorizing the Department of Health to promulgate a legislative rule relating to laboratories of the Medical Cannabis Program

HB 2247 authorizes West Virginia's Department of Health to create specific rules governing laboratories operating under the state's Medical Cannabis Program. The bill formally approves a legislative rule (previously filed in the State Register on August 30, 2024) that would establish requirements for these labs. This procedural measure directly affects cannabis testing laboratories by defining their regulatory standards under the program. It does not change program eligibility or patient access but clarifies the department's authority to set lab-related rules.
