Victoria Atkins says assisted death decisions are up to 'Parliamentarians' conscience', and are not a matter for the 'Government of the day'. The Health Secretary declined to say which way she leaned on the debate.
A lethal substance would be prescribed to the individual under the legislationEmmanuel Macron has announced a bill allowing 'assisted dying' under 'strict conditions' to be presented to the Council of Ministers in April.
The substance can be requested if the adult is able to ask for it and if their suffering is not able to be relieved. Medical experts will have 15 days to respond to the request for help to die and an approval will be valid for three months, during which time the patient can retract, Macron said. Under current French legislation, active euthanasia is prohibited. That is the deliberate administration of a lethal substance with the intention to cause a person to die.
It followed a report indicating that a large majority from among a panel composed of 184 randomly selected citizens support 'active assistance in dying.' He has previously said that, if safeguards are in place, people who want to end their lives could be helped by someone 'acting out of compassion'. It is understood that his view is unchanged.
