Push to amend federal laws preventing telehealth for voluntary assisted dying

Independent MP Kate Chaney is pushing to amend federal laws that currently criminalize telehealth for voluntary assisted dying (VAD) consultations, despite most states allowing VAD. The Labor national conference voted to repeal the law, but PM Anthony Albanese has expressed concerns about safeguards. Medical and legal bodies support the change, citing patient suffering and delays in care, while some religious leaders oppose it. Chaney's bill is set for debate on August 11.
