Assisted dying bill will not be adopted as government bill if it passes vote
Briefly

Civil servants and ministers are preparing to implement the assisted dying bill if it passes its first reading, highlighting the government's neutral position on the bill.
The bill's scrutiny process involves a dedicated committee chosen by MP Kim Leadbeater, ensuring engagement of both supporters and opponents in its deliberations.
Despite his opposition, Health Secretary Wes Streeting indicates readiness to support the bill's implementation should it pass, reflecting a pragmatic approach within the government.
Opponents of the bill express concerns regarding the limited debate time, while proponents argue that the bill will undergo more scrutiny in committee than typical government legislation.
