Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 February 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

I want to explore and understand Clause 22, which is a focus of this group. I think that the introduction of independent advocates is right. Subsection (4) refers to a qualifying person, but only as applied to subsection (2). I assume it may need a bit of a drafting change so that it also applies to subsection (3).
