Baroness Falkner of Margravine (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 January 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

Does the noble and learned Lord agree that, when courts in the United Kingdom rule that the public sector equality duty cannot be an afterthought—that it has to be complied with throughout and that Parliament needs to be aware of changes in circumstances or new issues that come up—it needs to be abided by? I am sorry; I cannot remember the title of the court case I referenced, but I am sure the noble and learned Lord will be able to find it in Hansard.
