Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 March 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

I am in a total muddle about what the noble Lord, Lord Deben, is saying. I think he is trying to say that Wales should decide on implementation. The Bill says: “The Welsh Ministers may by regulations make provision about voluntary assisted dying services in Wales”. We are giving the Welsh Ministers that power. Could the noble Lord make it clear that he supports that provision?
