A school district must permit a student who meets the requirements of RCW 69.51A.220 to consume marijuana-infused products on school grounds, aboard a school bus, or while attending a school-sponsored event.

[ 2019 c 204 § 2.]
RCW 69.51A.230
(b) Beginning on July 28, 2019, a qualifying patient's registration in the medical marijuana authorization database and his or her recognition card may be renewed by a qualifying patient's designated provider without the physical presence of the qualifying patient at the retailer if the authorization from the health care professional indicates that the qualifying patient qualifies for a compassionate care renewal, as provided in RCW 69.51A.030. A qualifying patient receiving renewals under the compassionate care renewal provisions is exempt from the photograph requirements under subsection (3)(c) of this section.
(b) Information contained in the medical marijuana authorization database may be released in aggregate form, with all personally identifiable information redacted, for the purpose of statistical analysis and oversight of agency performance and actions.
(c) Information contained in the medical marijuana authorization database shall not be shared with the federal government or its agents unless the particular qualifying patient or designated provider is convicted in state court for violating this chapter or chapter 69.50 RCW.
(10) The department must charge a one dollar fee for each initial and renewal recognition card issued by a marijuana retailer with a medical marijuana endorsement. The marijuana retailer with a medical marijuana endorsement shall collect the fee from the qualifying patient or designated provider at the time that he or she is entered into the database and issued a recognition card. The department shall establish a schedule for marijuana retailers with a medical marijuana endorsement to remit the fees collected. Fees collected under this subsection shall be deposited into the dedicated marijuana account created under RCW 69.50.530.
(11) If the database administrator fails to comply with this section, the department may cancel any contracts with the database administrator and contract with another database administrator to continue administration of the database. A database administrator who fails to comply with this section is subject to a fine of up to five thousand dollars in addition to any penalties established in the contract. Fines collected under this section must be deposited into the health professions account created under *RCW 43.70.320.
[ 2019 c 220 § 2; 2019 c 203 § 2; 2015 c 70 § 21.]
Reviser's note: *(1) 2019 c 220 amended RCW 69.51A.230 by providing that medical marijuana recognition card fees are to be deposited into the dedicated marijuana account created under RCW 69.50.530 rather than the health professions account under RCW 43.70.320. Consequently, the legislature likely intended that this reference to the health professions account be changed to the dedicated marijuana account under RCW 69.50.530 and fines collected for failure to comply with marijuana database requirements be deposited into the dedicated marijuana account rather than the health professions account under RCW 43.70.320.
(2) This section was amended by 2019 c 203 § 2 and by 2019 c 220 § 2, each without reference to the other. Both amendments are incorporated in the publication of this section under RCW 1.12.025(2). For rule of construction, see RCW 1.12.025(1).
Effective date—2019 c 220: See note following RCW 43.70.320.
