Labour (Co-op) — York Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 13 June 2025

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

I do not know whether the hon. Member has yet had time to read the report from the independent commission on palliative and end-of-life care, which goes into how pain and symptoms can be palliated. Ultimately, the problem at the moment is poor care and poor provision of specialist commissioned palliative care services. Will she read that report to understand the difference that palliative medicine can make for all the examples of poor care we have heard about in these debates?
