Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 March 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

Amendment 483A, tabled by the noble Baroness, Lady Maclean, suggests that the panel should be able to refer the patient for a further assessment. I am sorry that the noble Baroness is not in her place. Again, I understand the motivation, but Clause 17(4)(e) allows the panel to get a report from anyone, so I do not think it is necessary.
