Assisted Suicide in Britain - UCL & Bindman Debate 2009 - Video

"To be or not to be: a decision for the individual or

the state?"

The UCL & Bindman debate 2009 centered on the legal, medical and ethical arguments surrounding the topical issue of assisted suicide in Britain. A packed auditorium heard both sides to the argument of whether the current law should change to allow people to help terminally ill patients to travel to a country in which assisted suicide is lawful, without fear of being prosecuted.
