The Australian Christian Lobby values and supports every human life, particularly at the end of life when research for cures and world’s best palliative care should be the priority.

The Australian Christian Lobby encourages hope and purpose, even in the final chapter of people’s lives so that despondent Tasmanians would not choose to prematurely end their own lives.

The Australian Christian Lobby encourages hope and purpose, even in the final chapter of people’s lives so that despondent South Australians would not choose to prematurely end their own lives.

Tasmania’s laws recognise that human lives have unique and infinite value, the Australian Christian Lobby says, observing that a compassionate society is measured by its care for the sick and dying, enhancing their quality of life.

The Australian Christian Lobby has denounced the Western Australian government’s euthanasia laws as the most dangerous and unsafe in the world, with fewer protections than legislation recently passed in Victoria. Doctors will be allowed to raise Voluntary Assisted Dying ('VAD') with patients, and patients can take the poison without any supervision, which even controversial legislation in the Netherlands does not allow.

The Australian Christian Lobby has hit back at calls by the Ministerial Advisory Panel and Go Gentle to reject any amendments to the euthanasia bill in the state’s Legislative Council, branding the calls as ‘the height of arrogance’.

The Australian Christian Lobby has written an open letter to Members of the Legislative Council as the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill 2019 approaches a critical vote, urging them to respect the conscience of doctors, and family and kinship impacts of poorly-drafted VAD laws.

Western Australians have rejected the passing of the euthanasia bill by the lower house yesterday, with around 1,200 people attending the ‘Care, Not Killing’ rally held on the steps of parliament house today.

The debate over life itself is raging in the Queensland parliament right now. Last Friday in our Parliament House, I gave testimony to the Committee overseeing the inquiry, which will either recommend or not the introduction of euthanasia laws in Queensland.

After much media barracking, the long awaited Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill 2019 has been tabled in the WA parliament. For months the media have been running confronting and tragic stories of loved ones dying in agony.
