Queensland's MPs have been urged to pass euthanasia laws with a clear majority to avoid scaring people into choosing to end their lives early in case the laws are reversed if there's a change of government at the next election.
Deputy Premier Steven Miles stated that he hoped the Labor Government's much-anticipated legislation would pass with a sufficient majority.
Stating that he would hate it for someone to feel rushed to access voluntary assisted dying because they think there could be a change of government.
Queensland's 93 politicians will debate whether to legalise voluntary assisted dying in the state in September.
