Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Debate between Baroness Wheeler and Lord Frost

Friday 30th January 2026 Lords Chamber

[Captain of the King’s Bodyguard of the Yeomen of the Guard and Deputy Chief Whip (Baroness Wheeler) (Lab)]

The noble Lord is over the 10-minute limit. Could he please wind up?

[Lord Frost (Non-Afl)]

I am coming to my conclusion. It is somewhat safer with the two criteria of autonomy plus life expectancy and of unbearable and irremediable suffering. It limits the scope of the moral and legal change, or regression as I would see it, that we are undertaking here. That is why I have tabled Amendment 84 and why I think it is so essential.
