P-04-671 Legalisation of Assisted Dying – Petitioner to the Committee. 25.01.16

I would like to comment on the documents that have been sent to me;

I am aware that Wales does not have the devolved powers as of yet. However this petition was created with the intent to raise awareness of the matter and to show Assembly members the public support for the legalisation of assisted dying, as provided in the document it states "In the event, the principles underlying the Bill were not supported by AMs." regardless of the 82% of the UK public agreeing with the bill, the "voice of the people" are clearly not supporting the majority of the public. It was also intended to allow the AM's to discuss the suffering that could be ended with such a bill.

Many thanks,

Joshua Smith
