Under ACT law, one person cannot be responsible for cultivating more than two plants, regardless of how many people live at the address.

While the man lived with a housemate, he was the only resident cultivating the plants. This is considered a breach of Section 618(2)(a) of the Criminal Code 2002 (ACT) which states that it is an offence if a person cultivates three or more cannabis plants.

ACT Policing noted that if there are three or four plants in a residence, they must be cultivated by at least two residents.

Following the incident, police have encouraged the Canberra public to familiarise themselves with the relevant laws.
