The Health Minister** sponsored the Assisted Suicide bill in the Lower House. She spoke and voted for the Bill which will allow the killing of the vulnerable.

Michael Ferguson was one of the strongest pro-life voices in the debate, both in and out of Parliament. He has faced much opposition because of this and needs much encouragement and prayer.

While the Premier should be commended for allowing the Liberals a genuine conscience vote, he voted for assisted suicide.

Lara Alexander is likely to have voted against the Bill had she been in Parliament.
