Access to information about voluntary assisted dying
17 Access to information about voluntary assisted dying
This section applies if—
a person is receiving relevant services from a relevant entity at a facility; and
the person asks the entity for information about voluntary assisted dying; and
the entity does not provide at the facility, to persons to whom relevant services are provided, the information that has been requested.
The relevant entity and any other entity that owns or occupies the facility—
must not hinder the person's access at the facility to information about voluntary assisted dying; and
must, on request, allow reasonable access to the person at the facility by a registered health practitioner or other person to enable the registered health practitioner or other person to personally provide the requested information about voluntary assisted dying to the person.
