MHK behind bill welcomes progress on legislation
It will still be years before new laws designed to allow terminally ill people to seek medical assitance ending their own lives come into force on the Isle of Man, according to the MHK behind the proposals.
The Assisted Dying Bill has completed its passage through the House of Keys and the Legislative Council.
The bill will now need to be signed by five MLCs and 13 MHKs before being submitted for Royal Assent.
Mover of the private member's bill Ramsey MHK Alex Allinson says the approach has been measured:
No charges to be brought over fatal collision in Onchan, police confirm
DHSC paying up to £125k for new interim Chief Officer
Today's Heysham sailings impacted by tidal restrictions
Prisoner who threw boiling water and sugar over a fellow inmate sentenced to additional 22 months
