Moral and Practical Considerations in the Debate on Physician-Assisted Suicide: The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill in the UK
By Bela Fishbeyn| The American Journal of Bioethics@ A controversial Bill, titled Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, was recently proposed in England. The primary aim of this Bill is to allow adults aged 18 and over who are terminally ill and have the mental capacity to request assistance from a doctor to end their lives.
By Bela Fishbeyn| The American Journal of Bioethics@ On 29 November 2024, a majority of the UK Parliament backed the Assisted Dying Bill in a vote described by some in the media as ‘historic’. With around 54.55% of members voting in favor, the bill will now move on to further stages of scrutiny, amendments, and further votes. If the bill receives Royal Assent, the UK will become the 16th country to decriminalize assisted dying.
