Bid for VAD in WA
New Health Minister Roger Cook is calling for euthanasia to be legalised in WA in response to a “growing demand” for terminally ill patients to have the right to end their life. “Any debate in parliament on assisted suicide for terminally ill patients would have to be part of a wider community debate.” Mr Cook said that while the Labor Government would not introduce law reform as part of a policy, it supported individual members to table a private member’s Bill.
