Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Common card · No. 491317

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill is a private members' bill (PMB) which proposes to legalise assisted suicide for terminally ill adults in England and Wales. The bill was introduced by Labour backbench MP Kim Leadbeater in October 2024 after she was chosen first by ballot for PMBs. The political parties in Parliament gave MPs a conscience vote on the bill. The bill passed the Commons in June 2025 but stalled in the House of Lords. It was reintroduced in May 2026, and in a reversal, was voted down by the Commons on its second reading in September 2026.
