Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 11 November 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Assisted Dying.


Assisted Dying

No doubt the hon. Gentleman would care to clarify that the majority of doctors were, when last asked, opposed to the legalisation of assisted suicide. All the medical royal colleges and the BMA have declared their opposition to it after extensive consultation with their members. He has rightly declared his connections, but will he acknowledge that he is probably in the minority of clinicians in the views that he holds?
