Abstract
Legalising euthanasia and physician assisted suicide is being aggressively sold as the most compassionate action the community could offer people who are suffering unbearably. The private member's End of Life Choice Bill sponsored by Maryan Street MP, although withdrawn temporarily from the parliamentary ballot system in October 2013, will, she says, be reintroduced in the next parliament, later this year. That Bill would allow a person to receive medical assistance to die (a euphemism for euthanasia or assisted suicide) if he or she.
