The South American country has previously legalised
the plant and sets the low price to clear market of illegal
dealers.
Uruguay's government plans to sell cannabis for $1 per
gram, the country's drug czar has said, in an effort to
wrench the market away from illegal dealers.
The El Pais newspaper reported on Sunday that drug
chief Julio Calzada said cannabis sales should start in
the second half of 2014 at a price of $1.
A law has been passed in the lower house of Congress
and is expected to clear the Senate later this year.
It would make Uruguay the first country in the world to
license and enforce rules for the production, distribution
and sale of cannabis for adult consumers.
Sales would be for locals only.
