For three days MSPs have been debating the Assisted Suicide Bill late into the night — sitting until 10pm each evening as hundreds of amendments are examined line by line.

This alone shows just how complex, flawed and unresolved this legislation remains.

Despite hours of scrutiny, serious concerns about safeguards, protections for healthcare professionals, and risks to vulnerable people persist.

As Lord Alton reminds us: hard cases make bad law.

Scotland should not rush through legislation of this magnitude while so many questions remain unanswered.

This Bill must be rejected.
