Current terms of the law for England and Wales passing through parliament will only aid those with terminal cancer, former judge to say
Assisted dying must be expanded to help those with dementia and Parkinson’s disease in England and Wales, a former high court judge will tell MPs this week.
Sir Nicholas Mostyn, who has Parkinson’s, will argue that under the current terms of the law passing through parliament, the vast majority of people would need to have terminal cancer before being allowed an assisted death.
