After giving the matter a great deal of thought, I will be reintroducing the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill.
I would ask them to do the really important job that they are there to do and that they do admirably and that is to refine the legislation the House of Commons has introduced.
My position was always that I was supportive of the issue in principle, but I would need to have assurance that the safeguards were robust and were appropriate and will protect vulnerable people.
