Care Not Killing has strongly condemned a Dutch End of Life Bill that would extend euthanasia to anyone over the age of 75, even if they have no illness or disability.
CNK welcomes an 'extensive and unusually frank statement from the UK's oldest medical organisation' which 'rightly puts a sword to the lie that the RCP supports a change in the law - it does not.'
Care Not Killing welcomes the RCGP Council's decision, following 'the largest consultation on an issue of public policy that the College has conducted.'
Care Not Killing has responded to the latest call for an inquiry into assisted suicide and euthanasia made in today's Sunday Express by saying it not necessary or wanted.
Care Not Killing welcomes today's rejection of an unnecessary legal challenge to the UK's assisted suicide laws by the assisted suicide campaigner Phil Newby.
'Evidence from around the world shows that removing these protections puts vulnerable people at risk of abuse and of coming under pressure, real or perceived, to end their lives prematurely.'
