I thank Dr. Campbell for her submission and her presentation. We heard from Professor Desmond O'Neill in the previous session. How does Dr. Campbell balance the principle of autonomy with the framework of care? How does a doctor square the argument of beneficence, non-maleficence, doing no harm, justice and the other fundamental ethical principles? How does Dr. Campbell balance the care ethic framework with a potential regime of assisted suicide?
