Anscombe Centre Publishes Submissions to Jersey & Isle of Man Euthanasia & Assisted Suicide (EAS) Consultations
At the same time as the Health and Social Care Committee Inquiry into ‘Assisted Dying’ – Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide (EAS) – across December 2023 and January 2023, similar consultations were held in two of the Crown Dependencies, in the Bailiwick of Jersey (from 17 October 2022 to 14 January 2023) and in the Isle of Man (from 01 December 2022 to 26 January 2023), on legislative proposals to introduce EAS into the law and medical practice of both those jurisdictions.
Both consultations took place via a series of set questions, with multiple choice answers and space to give explanations of the answer. Anscombe Centre Staff gave submissions to both, and you can now read the submission to the Jersey consultation (composed by our Education and Research Officer, Dr Chris Wojtulewicz), and to the Isle of Man consultation (composed by our Director, Professor David Albert Jones).

Sincerest Thanks for Your Support
Staff are grateful to all those who sustained the Centre in the past by their prayers and the generous financial support from trusts, organisations, communities and especially from individual donors, including the core funding that came through the Day for Life fund and so from the generosity of many thousands of parishioners. We would finally like to acknowledge the support the Centre has received from the Catholic community in Ireland, especially during the pandemic when second collections were not possible.
We would like to emphasise that, though the Centre is now closed, these donations have not been wasted but have helped educate and support generations of conscientious healthcare professionals, clerics, and lay people over almost 50 years. This support has also helped prevent repeated attempts to legalise euthanasia or assisted suicide in Britain and Ireland from 1993 till the end of the Centre’s work on 31 July 2025.
