Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 January 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

Like the noble Baroness, Lady Fox, I have had online assessments; during Covid, I had a breast exam online to see whether I needed a mammogram. I would argue that that was relatively easy. Having to Sharpie under my arms to show where the lumps were is slightly different from someone assessing whether people could take drugs—“poison”, as the noble and learned Lord said last week—to end their lives.
