Isle of man's parliament votes to progress assisted dying bill

Article indépendant

KMIETOWICZ, Zosia

Politicians on the Isle of Man have voted by 16:8 to progress the Assisted Dying Bill, which could make assisted dying available from 2027 to residents who are mentally competent and have less than 12 months to live. The bill now passes to the Legislative Council, which can amend the legislation but not vote it down. The option of an assisted death, which will be limited to self-administration and will not involve a doctor ending a person’s life, will be available to people who have been residents of the Isle of Man for five years. These proposals are in line with laws currently being considered in Scotland.
