Dr. Greg Mewett:

The co-ordinating medical practitioner, the doctor who does most of the co-ordination of the case, knows when the patient has died. The family will let the doctor know the patient has died. That information is then provided to the voluntary assisted dying review board, which is the overarching control board. All the statistics and data are collected in that way. These patients have this medication in a locked box to which they have the key, usually in a cupboard somewhere safely just like when they are prescribed medication such as morphine or other potentially dangerous drugs, which need to be kept securely in their homes.
