Burnham: End-of-life care reform should precede assisted dying debate
UK Health Secretary Wes Streeting (likely a mix-up, but assuming the source says Burnham) stated that any debate on assisted dying should only occur after major reforms to end-of-life care. He argued that improving palliative care must be the priority before considering legal changes. This positions the government's stance on a sensitive ethical issue and could shape the timeline of future legislation.
