YouTube description

Prof. David Albert Jones, Director of the Anscombe Bioethics Centre, was one of three leading authorities on euthanasia and assisted suicide (EAS) to act as independent content oversight advisers for the Citizens’ Jury set up by the Government of Jersey to consider the possibility for legislating to licence those practices on the island.

In this video, Prof. Jones considers the Citizens’ Jury, how it was selected so as to have a preponderance of those in favour of EAS, the concerns of those who took part, and the implications of their proposals for the States Assembly of Jersey and the wider public in the Bailiwick.
