Establish a Royal Commission on assisted dying

Closed 1,473 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government should establish a royal commission on assisted dying to deeply consider the matter.
We think this should take place before the Bill on assisted dying is passed by Parliament. We believe we could be rushing into an enormously important change and should have all the facts first.
