Today is a special day: in Western Australia the Voluntary Aid in Dying Act (that is ratified in 2019) has come info force. Earlier this month, the new established laws in Spain and New Mexico came into effect.
Other good news also comes from Australia: the South Australian VAD bill is amended, approved and ratified. South Australia is now the fourth Australian state where voluntary assisted dying will be legal (after Victoria, Western Australia and Tasmania).
