Biography
Based on the provided extracts, Baroness Finn's recent contributions do not align with the health and social care topics listed. Her 12 debate speeches cover democratic institutions, the infected blood compensation scheme, demographic policy, end-of-life legislation, hereditary peers reform, stillbirth definition, public authority fraud powers, children's wellbeing, academies, and the autumn budget—none directly addressing the 11 health topics attributed to her engagement record. The only health-related extract is her speech on the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill in September 2025, where she discussed the contradictions in suicide law and its implications for healthcare professionals.
