flag UK MP delays debate on bill that would legalize assisted dying for terminally ill adults.

flag Labour MP Kim Leadbeater has delayed the debate on the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, which seeks to legalize assisted dying for terminally ill adults in England and Wales with fewer than six months to live. flag The bill, now scheduled for May 16, allows terminally ill individuals to end their lives with approval from two doctors and an expert panel. flag The delay is intended to give MPs more time to consider recent changes to the bill, including the removal of the High Court safeguard and doubling the implementation period to four years.
