Project No. 84

The Medical Care of the Dying Bill (WA), which was intended to implement many of the recommendations in the Commission’s report, was introduced into the Legislative Assembly in March 1995. It was considered in Committee in May 1996.

The Commission was asked to give advice on drafts of the Medical Treatment for the Dying Bill. The bill, retitled as the Acts Amendment (Consent to Medical Treatment) Bill 2006 has recently been introduced into Parliament.
