Bill: Increasing the freedom to euthanasia
Details
Submitted by[?]: Socialistic Left
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 2309
Description[?]:
| Currently a court order is required for euthanasia to be legal. We believe that as long as the patient and doctor consents, this should be enough. The court system can be slow, and can provide a long wait. For patients in great pain this is not acceptable, they should be allowed to chose along with their doctor that the chance for survival is so low and the pain so great that ending it early might be the right thing to do. |
Proposals

Old value:: Euthanasia is only allowed with consent from the patient and a court order.

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
