Assisted Dying for the Terminally Ill Bill: Select Committee Report

My Lords, it is very important that bishops and priests continue to express their views on these issues from their religious background, because those who hold those religious beliefs want to hear what they have to say about them. Indeed, they have much experience and I would listen to every word that they say; I frequently hang on the words of the right reverend Prelate the Bishop of Oxford, who is frequently on the ““Today”” programme, because he is so wise. I am only saying that one cannot legislate for other people from a religious point of view; it must be their decision.
