| Lord Joffe's Contribution |

|
|
Lord Joffe, sponsor of the Assisted Suicide Bill, was joint author with Mr. David Lipsey of the minority report of the 1999 Royal Commission on Long Term Care in old age. The majority recommended that the Government should continue to fund social care for those needing it, as well as nursing care. Lord Joffe thought not, and the Government acted accordingly. |
