In a piece of hopeful news, Irish legislator Gino Kennedy reports that
a group of doctors will announce their support for the assisted dying
bill which will be the subject of public hearings in the Dail (the
Irish parliament) this year.
Mr. Kenny, the bill’s lead sponsor, tweeted that “Attitudes are
changing to the issue of assisted dying. The public are ahead of
Parliamentarians in wanting to see change in the law. October’s vote
in the Dail to progress the DWD 20 bill was a pivotal moment that will
eventually see the law changing in Ireland and elsewhere.”
