Lord Kennedy of Southwark (Lab Co-op)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 December 2025

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

I am very happy to give thought to that. When I came to this Dispatch Box a couple of weeks ago and announced the extra days, I hoped that that would assist the House, but at this rate of progress I think we may still struggle. I am very happy to consider that. My door remains open to anybody for whom I can give assistance on that. The point that I keep making is that, at the end of the day, this is a Private Member’s Bill and the Government remain neutral on the Bill itself.
