Lord Moylan (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 December 2025

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

Does the noble Baroness accept that ordinary residence does not end the debate because the Bill goes on to impose an additional qualification about having lived in this country for 12 months prior to the date of signing the first declaration? If it were just ordinary residence, legally no issues would arise—there might be other issues—but we also have a 12-month requirement, which appears to me to be arbitrary and risky.
