Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) BillContribution
We should listen carefully to disabled people. Disability Rights UK told the Select Committee that assistance to die should not be easier to access than assistance to live. As the noble Baroness, Lady Grey-Thompson, has repeatedly warned, disabled people could fall within scope through secondary complications if we are not careful. These are not marginal cases and they are not coincidences; they are warning signs.
