Lord Falconer of Thoroton (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 February 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

I am not offering anything in the way of a different framework in relation to this. I am more than happy to discuss with people what sort of code of practice there should be. I say that not because I have not been listening—I have been listening as hard as I possibly can; but listening does, from time to time, involve disagreement as well. I apologise for disagreeing, but I do disagree with the two big schemes that have been put by the noble Baronesses, Lady Finlay and Lady Hollins.
