Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill
Asked by: Lord Harper (Conservative - Life peer) Tuesday 25th November 2025 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask His Majesty's Government whether any civil servants are working on the implementation of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill beyond the work necessary to improve the workability of the legislative drafting. Answered by Baroness Merron - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) The function of the team working within the Department is to fulfil the Government’s duty to the statute book, with regard to the legal and technical coherence of the bill. Matters of policy have remained solely for the sponsoring members, the Hon. Member Kim Leadbeater in the Commons and the Rt Hon. Lord Falconer of Thoroton in the Lords, to determine. None of this work to date has been done with the objective of implementing assisting dying. Should the bill gain Royal Assent, this work would form the basis of an implementation programme. |

Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) The topic of a causal link between chemical exposure and cancer incidence in Explosive Ordnance Disposal personnel was referred to the Independent Medical Expert Group (IMEG) in June 2025.

Armed Forces: Explosives
Asked by: Lord Harper (Conservative - Life peer) Monday 24th November 2025 Question to the Ministry of Defence: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made about whether there is a causal link between chemical exposure and cancer incidence in Explosive Ordnance Disposal personnel. Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) Ministry of Defence (MOD) officials reviewed with interest the March 2025 British Journal of Urology International research letter on a potentially increased risk of bladder cancer in military personnel exposed to explosive ordnance. MOD referred this matter to the Independent Medical Expert Group (IMEG) for their independent medical advice. The possible link between exposure to explosives and an increased risk of bladder cancer among military personnel was discussed by the IMEG at their June 2025 meeting. This matter now forms part of their current work plan. This is a complex issue on which we await their advice. |
