Euthanasia in the UK and mainland Europe - a snap shot
A former BBC television producer had her life terminated this week at the Dignitas euthanasia facility in Switzerland. She left a message protesting UK laws which prohibit direct assisted suicide. Kathy's guest is Anthony Ozimic, media manager of SPUC, the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children. The day before they debate euthanasia at Cork University, Kathy invites Anthony Ozimic to join her in studio to examine this issue in the UK and in mainland Europe.
