I have a question that Professor Landers or Dr. Colleran might answer. One of the recommendations made by Irish Doctors supporting Medical Assistance in Dying is that a regime should be applicable to individuals over the age of 18 with a progressive, incurable and terminal illness. It has been stated that a definition of "terminal illness" will need to be specified in order that it would not encompass long-term conditions or illnesses outside those urgently contemplated. Do the witnesses have any comment on what that definition might be?
