If it becomes law and the present legislation for England and Wales does not pass, what will we see then, so far as the reserved matter of regulation of the medical professions, for example, is concerned? They will have to be regulated in respect of Scotland but not of England and Wales on a fundamentally important issue—namely, engagement in assisting people to die. Will this apply only to the medical profession resident in Scotland, or will it apply to the medical profession in England and Wales? Will it apply only to people who are resident in Scotland, or will it apply to people who are resident in England and Wales?
