Proceeding contribution from Joan Ruddock (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 27 March 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate on Assisted Suicide.
Assisted Suicide
I must make it absolutely clear to my right hon. Friend and the House that the amendment only asks the Government to consult on putting the guidance into statute. If it was in statute, the DPP would still have discretion, and assisting suicide would still be a crime.
