Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 March 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

The noble and learned Lord, Lord Falconer, said in an earlier debate that we as a Parliament cannot tie the hands of any future Parliament. It is important that, when we are asking questions about chain of custody, it is not referred to as carting drugs around. We need to be really clear what a chain of custody might be.
