释义 |
The All-Party Parliamentary Group for Choice at the End of Life is a cross-party group of members of the British Parliament and Peers that supports better end-of-life options, including assisted dying. They believe that, subject to legal safeguards, terminally-ill adult patients should have the option of an assisted death in their final stages of life.[1] In 2012, this APPG launched a draft a bill for assisted dying[2] which was presented to the House of Lords by Lord Falconer in 2013. The proposed bill was debated in 2014 but ran out of time in the run up to the 2015 General Election.[3] A version of the bill tabled by Rob Marris was eventually voted on and defeated in the House of Commons in September 2015.[4] The chair is Independent MP Nick Boles, who faced a potentially life-threatening illness before supporting the campaign.[5] He succeeded Kit Malthouse MP as chair, who said it is "the great human rights campaign of our political generation".[6] The secretary is Jim Fitzpatrick MP[7] and the secretariat is provided by the non-profit assisted dying campaign group Dignity in Dying.[8] References1. ^{{cite web |title=About — All-Party Parliamentary Group for Choice at the End of Life |url=http://www.appg-endoflifechoice.org.uk/about/ |accessdate=2 August 2018}} 2. ^{{cite web |title=Draft assisted dying bill consultation comes to an end with almost 500 submissions |url=https://www.dignityindying.org.uk/news/draft-assisted-dying-bill-consultation-comes-end-almost-500-submissions/ |accessdate=6 September 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web |title=Lord falconers assisted dying bill (2014) |url=https://www.dignityindying.org.uk/assisted-dying/the-law/lord-falconers-assisted-dying-bill-2014/ |accessdate=6 September 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web |title=Assisted dying bill overwhelmingly rejected by MPs |url=https://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/sep/11/mps-begin-debate-assisted-dying-bill |accessdate=6 September 2018}} 5. ^{{cite news |title=Why I’ve changed my mind on assisted dying, says NICK BOLES MP |url=https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/life/974558/assisted-dying-bill-nick-boles-mp |accessdate=2 August 2018 |date=15 June 2018}} 6. ^{{cite web |title=Kit Malthouse to Chair the Choice at the End of Life All Party Party Parliamentary Group |url=https://www.northwesthampshireconservatives.org.uk/news/kit-malthouse-chair-choice-end-life-all-party-party-parliamentary-group |accessdate=4 August 2018}} 7. ^{{cite web |title=House of Commons - Register Of All-Party Parliamentary Groups |url=https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm/cmallparty/180829/choice-at-the-end-of-life.htm |accessdate=6 September 2018}} 8. ^{{cite web |title=About — All-Party Parliamentary Group for Choice at the End of Life |url=http://www.appg-endoflifechoice.org.uk/about/ |accessdate=2 August 2018}} External links
