New UK bill aims to legalize assisted dying for people who are terminally ill

AP Medical Writer

LONDON (AP) — A new bill aiming to legalize assisted dying in Britain is set to be introduced in Parliament on Wednesday, marking the first time in nearly a decade that lawmakers will debate allowing doctors to help end people’s lives after previous court challenges to change the law failed. The Labour politician Kim Leadbeater plans to introduce a bill granting terminally ill people in England and Wales a way to allow physicians to help them die, although the details of the bill won’t be released until later next month, ahead of a Parliamentary discussion and vote.
