MPs who voted in favour of the assisted dying bill have raised concerns about parts of it and want to see changes before giving it final approval. Some are worried about the bill's provisions to allow doctors to raise assisted dying as an option without the terminally ill patient having asked for it first.

Kim Leadbeater, who proposed the assisted dying bill, has said there is ‘still a lot of work to do’ to perfect the proposed law

The assisted dying bill has passed with 330 MPs voting for the bill to progress, while 275 MPs voted against it. It has been approved for a second reading with a majority of 55. MPs have begun voting on whether or not to give the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill a second reading.
