Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 February 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

My Lords, many points have been made around the Chamber about disability. The most recent large survey, carried out by Opinium in February 2024 of nearly 11,000 respondents in the UK, showed that 75% of the general population were supportive of the Bill and 14% opposed it. Of those who had a disability, 78% were supportive and 14% were opposed. It is very important to put those figures on the record.
