Cannabis testing in Lucerne: the canton has its own authority
Lucerne operates its own food-control service. Lucerne city’s SCRIPT connection is distinct from cantonal product enforcement.
Official responsibility: Lucerne
Dienststelle Lebensmittelkontrolle und Verbraucherschutz Luzern
Lucerne has its own Food Control and Consumer Protection service. It treats food, consumer products, chemicals and tobacco products as separate topics. Being in Central Switzerland does not place Lucerne under the Laboratory of the Original Cantons.

Does the shared Original Cantons laboratory cover Lucerne?
Central Switzerland is not a single jurisdiction. Uri, Schwyz, Obwalden and Nidwalden support that shared institution; Lucerne has its own service.
