Euthanasia Policy

ONE Party believes in the value of life, and that every life has value. We acknowledge the 2019 End of Life Choice Bill drew the highest numbers of submissions than any other bill in our NZ history. A staggering 39,159 people made submission, with an overwhelming 91% opposed. This is a cross section of well-informed New Zealanders.
  1. ONE Party totally opposes any form that devalues life, and for this reason we reject and oppose all forms of Euthanasia.
  2. Hospices have excellent palliative care for those facing terminal illness, and we support increased funding for palliative care services.
  3. ONE Party recognize the immense stress put on families caring for loved ones with terminal illness. We support increased funding for carer services, and counselling services for those caring for a person with terminal illness.
