Joint Oireachtas Committee on Assisted Dying

Examination of Potential Consequences - Protecting and Enhancing the Provision of Palliative Care: Discussion

Dr. Faith Cranfield:

It is really difficult to imagine. Certainly, as a representative of the IPMCA, we have not asked members. In Scotland, when legislation was put forward, 40% of palliative medicine consultants surveyed said they would resign if their organisation was providing it.

We have not asked that question of our cohort of patients.
