A Bill to legalise Voluntary Assisted Dying has been introduced into the NSW Parliament by an Independent MP.
It would create a legal framework to provide for, and regulate access to, voluntary assisted dying (euthanasia) for persons in NSW who are in the last stages of a terminal illness and whose pain and suffering has become unbearable, to receive help to end their life peacefully and with dignity. This will include a number of safeguards.
This is not an easy topic, and I understand the Far South Coast community will have a diverse range of opinions on this important issue. I want to hear from as many residents in our region as possible so that I can best represent your views in Parliament.
