Campaigners warn of assisted dying injustices
PROPOSALS for an assisted dying law in Scotland would “give rise to profound injustices.”
The Better Way campaign group issued the warning in its submission to Holyrood’s health committee, as it begins its scrutiny of the Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill, tabled by Lib Dem MSP Liam McArthur.
Mr McArthur argues it will “give terminally ill, mentally competent adults the option to control the manner and timing of their death” and offer “greater choice and compassion” in end-of-life care.
