“Locals in Maastricht should no longer have to formally register as marijuana users to buy soft drugs from the city’s cannabis cafes, mayor Onno Hoes said in a letter to councillors on Wednesday. Hoes says the number of foreigners trying to buy soft drugs has fallen so sharply that the membership cards are no longer necessary. Hoes also hopes this will reduce the number of street dealers who have appeared since the ban was introduced. The marijuana pass system is due to be introduced in the rest of the country, including Amsterdam, in January next year.”
