Baroness Butler-Sloss (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 8 January 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

My Lords, I apologise for writing an email to everyone in the House, but I did so because the Motion is extremely important and I strongly support the noble and learned Lord, Lord Falconer. This is probably one of the most important Bills to come before this House in recent years, as all noble Lords will know. It is unfortunate that it is a Private Member’s Bill, because that presents additional problems. I do not like the Bill, but we have it and we have to deal with it.
