Rafael Behr makes the powerful point that once (if) the assisted dying bill becomes law, and before implementation of safeguards & the allowance of the choice to seek an assisted death is formally legalised, there is a space for a citizens jury to explore how the safeguards should be formulated & focussed.
He also rightly suggests this would have been better earlier in the process of deliberation, bu we are where we are.
