Biography
Lord Magan of Castletown opposed the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill in a Lords debate speech on 19 September 2025, characterising it as "morally and ethically" problematic and "deeply flawed". He argued that the legislation to legalise assisted suicide was unacceptable to most medical practitioners and expressed concern that major medical organisations and schools had raised significant objections to the proposal.

“…This legislative proposal that seeks to legitimise assisted suicide is clearly unacceptable to a significant majority of conscientious medical practitioners. It is no surprise that so many leading medical organisations and medical schools have expressed very significant concerns.”
