Jersey debates assisted dying - as Manx law breaks unwelcome record

A Freedom of Information request in the UK has shown the Isle of Man's Assisted Dying Bill has broken an unwelcome record.

The Press Association asked about how long the Ministry of Justice took to process Isle of Man legislation.

Since 2020, the figure stood at an average of 88 days - but the new assisted dying law has so far taken 337 days, the longest of any Manx law.

Jersey began debating a similar law this morning.
