03 April 2023
26 May 2022 / 25 January 2023 / 3 April 2023
Politicians of the Isle of Man voted 22 over 2 in favour of introducing a Bill that, if passed, would lead to legal assisted dying. With this, the Isle of Man follow the Island of Jersey and Scotland in exploring, debating, and voting on voluntary assisted dying, the human right to choose the time of one’s own end of suffering and life with professional support.

From December 2022 to January 2023, a public consultation / survey was done and DIGNITAS – To live with dignity – To die with dignity handed in a submisson to Tynwald.
