Baroness Hayman (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 14 November 2025

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

I follow the noble Lord’s argument, but he said that we should say, “We should do this again”. I think that if we reach that situation, the proper formulation is, “You should do this again”, and the other place could consider that. But the way we undertake that scrutiny should be responsible and reasonable and it should not deny the process of doing our job and putting those views and doing that—frankly, we have to be grown up about this and we have to behave responsibly about it.
