Les évêques anglais et gallois disent non au projet de loi sur le suicide assisté

In brief

The Catholic bishops of England and Wales have rejected a proposed assisted suicide bill. The bishops argue that the legislation must be opposed to defend the sacredness of human life.

The examination of the bill, proposed by Lauren Edwards on June 17, resumes on September 11. A nearly identical text was previously rejected in April 2026 by the House of Lords. The Archbishop of Liverpool described the text as dangerous and flawed.
