United Kingdom
Assisted Dying is not legal in the UK. A Private Members Bill was introduced to Parliament in the 2024-26 session. The Committee stage in the House of Lords was not completed by the end of the 2026 parliamentary session which means that the private members bill can not proceed further. However, Kim Leadbeater, the Labour MP who tabled the private member’s bill, said the plan would be to table an identical bill in the next parliamentary session, which would prevent peers blocking it again, as the Lords cannot stop the same bill twice.
