Lord Forsyth of Drumlean (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 19 September 2025

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

Can the Minister explain why, despite requests from the sponsors of the Bill, and despite the precedent which has been taken with other Bills which were Private Members’ Bills but matters of conscience, such as capital punishment and abortion, the Government are not prepared to provide time so that this House can ensure that it is properly scrutinised and considered?
