Cannabis continues to be a 'hot topic' in the Australian media. The National Cannabis Prevention and Information Centre (NCPIC) staff are available to the media for comment on a wide range of cannabis-related issues.

Please contact NCPIC's National Communication Manager, Paul Dillon in relation to any media interview.
NCPIC will be conducting a regular media watch and collecting a range of media stories on cannabis-related stories that appear in the press.
Details of these stories will appear on the website and where inaccurate media reporting has occurred and incorrect information has been presented a response will be made.
These can be viewed in our media watch section.
