Baroness Hollins (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 December 2025

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

It is the Equality Act, not the disability Act. I suggested that the definition of “disability” in the Equality Act, with respect to something like this, would in fact include someone with a long-term condition or mental illness, as well as any other disabling condition that the noble and learned Lord may be referring to.
