Joint Oireachtas Committee on Assisted Dying
Healthcare Provision and Healthcare Professionals: Discussion
Professor Robert Landers:
The Deputy is right in that. We have not taken a definitive stance. We have not surveyed the membership. We formed a working group which I chaired and which had input from various specialties, including mental health professionals, palliative care physicians and physicians caring for the elderly. That informed our previous submission on this but we have not taken a stance or surveyed the membership in full.
