A colleague has written this, which I think nicely sums up some of the reasons I have mixed feelings about the #AssistedDying bill.

No simple right answers here; just tradeoffs - but hopefully we can recognise and help those who are at risk.

I consulted marginalised groups on the assisted dying bill – there is fear
The Terminally Ill Adults Bill offers a choice to a small but important group of people who want the option of assisted dying.

After 11 years I have stepped down from the Research Ethics Committee. I was lucky to be part of an exceptional committee, both as a member and more recently as Alternate Vice Chair. We were able to review a huge variety of studies, from CTIMPS to Qualitative research, and everything in between.
