Abstract
"When the Law Lords delivered their judgement in the tragic case of Tony Bland in 1993 the point was made that developments in medical science raised new questions which previous discussions of the law in relation to murder could not have envisaged. Parliament was urged to examine these questions. When the House of Lords Select Committee on Medical Ethics invited views on these points the House of Bishops of the Church of England submitted a joint statement with the Roman Catholic Bishops of England and Wales. That statement, which is reproduced here, is a clear statement of our Churches’ approach to these questions."
