My understanding is that it is half that number that reflects people who have a previous cannabis conviction record or a previous criminal record for simple cannabis possession. You said something that might be the reason for that. You said there are about 250,000 people who would eligible. The number of people who are eligible for pardons, under this piece of legislation, is different from the number of people who have previous cannabis conviction records.
The eligibility pares down the number of people and it may be reasonable to suspect that one of the requirements for eligibility is that individuals have to have only simple cannabis possession records. You can imagine that a vast number of people who have simple cannabis possession also have another offence on their record, be it an administrative offence, a fine or another drug-related offence. That would automatically disqualify them. I can see that the number of people who might be able to benefit from this would be substantially less than the number of people who actually have simple cannabis possession on their records.
