UK Lawmakers Advance Legislation for Assisted Dying
TL;DR Summary
The assisted dying bill has passed the initial stages in the House of Commons and now moves to the House of Lords for further scrutiny, with its final approval uncertain due to potential delays, amendments, and parliamentary time constraints. If passed, it could take up to four years to implement, possibly allowing legal assisted deaths by 2029.
