Lord Markham (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 January 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

This whole debate shows that these are not black and white matters. Although they are all relevant criteria, which absolutely should be in the assessment—my understanding from the Bill is that they are in the assessment—it should not be put down as some sort of tick-box exercise that says you are either eligible or not, according to them.
