Baroness Coffey (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 February 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

In my Amendment 110, I was basically saying that there is a new section in waiting, and what is the Government’s intention regarding it? My amendment would put it in place a capacity measure in this legislation, and I want to try to understand the position. Also, I do not think that the Minister has addressed any of my questions about Clause 22, and I would be grateful if she could give some thought to them and write to me—or perhaps the Justice Minister might be better placed to do so. I raise this because it is a stand part issue, and I want to get a better understanding without having to table lots of amendments to Clause 22 when we get to it.
