I support people’s right to the end of life care that they choose, including effective and well funded palliative care, and/or safe and supported access to Voluntary Assisted Dying. VAD enables a person to die with dignity, some measure of control, and reduced suffering. I do understand this is a difficult issue for many in our community, particularly from a cultural or religious perspective.  I believe any changes to the current legislation in our Territory need to be undertaken with care, wide consultation and evaluation of the way current legislation is working in our community.
