[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill would change UK law to allow terminally ill adults (expected to die within 6 months) to request medical help to end their lives, with strict checks to ensure they're making a free choice. Currently, assisting someone to die is illegal in the UK. The bill is currently being examined in detail in Parliament's House of Lords.

Presented by Lord Falconer of Thoroton.
