That this House welcomes the growing use of living wills, which allow patients to set out the medical treatments they would accept or refuse should they lose the ability to communicate; recognises that they are also a great help to health professionals because they give them a better understanding of how patients wish to be treated; and calls upon all hospital and primary care trusts to draw up and enact guidelines to enable staff to recognise and respond to them safely and effectively.

That this House is concerned by the decision by BAe Systems to make over 1,000 of its workforce redundant as a response to the MoD decision to bring the Nimrod programme to a controlled stop; calls on the Government and the company to work with the trades unions on those parts of the structure which are not subject to design change and can be worked on until the production phase restarts, thus retaining experienced workers which would constitute a future saving in the cost of the remaining Nimrods; and urges BAe Systems not to enact any compulsory redundances while the redundancy consultation process is still continuing.
