Marshall Perron, the person responsible for the Northern Territory Rights of the
Terminally Act 1995 is in Hobart this week, 21 – 24 August 2013.
Marshall is one of the most knowledgeable and thoughtful advocates of voluntary
euthanasia legislation and will be speaking to MPs and at a public meeting on
Friday in support of proposed Tasmanian voluntary assisted dying legislation to be
debated before the end of the year.
He has continued to be actively involved in the issue since the Northern Territory
legislation was overturned by the Federal Parliament and the removal of the right
of the Territories to have such legislation.
Marshall will be making an address, ‘Voluntary Euthanasia – Lessons from the Territory’, from 1.15 pm on
Friday 23 August, Nell Pascoe Room, Criterion House, next to the former ’50 and
Better Centre’, Bathurst St.
His address will be preceded by the AGM of Dying
with Dignity Tasmania.
Margaret Sing, President, Dying With Dignity, Tas
