2.3 The then Minister for Health highlighted this divide in his second

I have heard some anecdotal
evidence that cannabis, particularly, is moving away from the black market so that organised

collectives through social media—they call it the 'brown market'—and that is taking some share out
of the cannabis market for these gangs.
