  • A fine: the maximum penalty being $5,500 for a small quantity
  • Good behaviour bond
  • Community service order
  • Suspended sentence
  • Periodic detention
  • Home detention
  • Prison sentence: the maximum sentence for a small quantity is two years (if sentenced in the local court), or 15 years (if sentenced in the district court)
