Following the successful Stage 1 vote yesterday, newspaper headlines are dominated by assisted dying.
MSPs voted 70 to 56 in favour of Liam McArthur’s Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill yesterday. The Bill now moves to Stage 2, where all MSPs can propose amendments to the Bill which are then considered and voted on by the Health, Social Care and Sport Committee. The amended Bill is then put forward for a final vote by all MSPs at Stage 3 before it moves into law.
