57 Contact person
A person must, after making a final request, appoint a person who is aged 18 years or more as the contact person in respect of the person.
The contact person must return to a pharmacist at the dispensing pharmacy any unused or remaining voluntary assisted dying substance dispensed to the person making the final request either—
if the person dies and the contact person knows that any voluntary assisted dying substance is unused or remaining after the death, within 15 days after the date of death; or
if the person decides to make a request under section 71 for practitioner administration or decides not to self administer, at the person's request.
The
Board may contact the contact person to request information.
