“…Could we do something here in the Bill about palliative care and about transparency? My noble friends on the Front Bench have already said how, if we are taking away certain things, we need to increase the amount of transparency. I fully agree with that.”

What they’ve said

  • “There was an initiative to have a mental health first aider in every school. What further work has been done to maintain that level in the Minister’s working collaboration with the DfE and local councils?”

  • “…I completely understand the passion of people who want assisted dying to happen in this country. A variety of amendments have been rejected when talking about pain or other things being key criteria, or about autonomy versus the risk of coercion, and I think they should come up with a better Bill.”

  • “…That contrasts significantly with Marie Curie’s figures that over 300,000 people engage with hospice care and palliative care every year. It does feel, and part of the debate we had earlier almost suggested it, that doctors should do it unless they choose not to, and I strongly believe we should do it the other way.”

  • “…I did not think that it would be that different or that radical for the issue of assisted dying also to be considered a competence to be passed across to the Welsh Senedd and Welsh Government. The suggestion has been that I am just trying to disrupt this happening in Wales.”

  • “…Committee that at no point was the Welsh Senedd invited to vote on the principle of legislating for assisted dying, because a change in criminal law would not be within its purview.”
