Creation of Secretariat Advisory Board

The Secretariat Advisory Board (SAB) to the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on CBD Products is a collection of the UK’s and Europe’s leading CBD and hemp trade bodies and groups.

The board’s role is to provide advice to the APPG Secretariat, Tenacious Labs on latest industry views, innovation and research. The Secretariat works for the APPG at the direction of the office of the co-chairs, Crispin Blunt MP and Baroness Manzoor CBE. It provides a singular voice for the industry, and delivers research, reports and advice on industry advances, and funding for events. The SAB gathers every two months, before the bimonthly meeting of the APPG which meets in Portcullis House, Westminster.

SAB members include the Medical Cannabis Clinicians Society (MCCS), Cannabis Industry Council (CIC), Cannabis Trades Association (CTA), European Industrial Hemp Association (EIHA) and the British Hemp Alliance (BHA).
