Written Answers
Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill
Asked by: Lord Harper (Conservative - Life peer)
Tuesday 25th November 2025

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether any civil servants are working on the implementation of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill beyond the work necessary to improve the workability of the legislative drafting.

Answered by Baroness Merron - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care)

The function of the team working within the Department is to fulfil the Government’s duty to the statute book, with regard to the legal and technical coherence of the bill.

Matters of policy have remained solely for the sponsoring members, the Hon. Member Kim Leadbeater in the Commons and the Rt Hon. Lord Falconer of Thoroton in the Lords, to determine.

None of this work to date has been done with the objective of implementing assisting dying. Should the bill gain Royal Assent, this work would form the basis of an implementation programme.
