The challenges of bio-ethics in UK decision-making
Thu 5 February 2015
St Edmund's College
In considering the challenge bioethics presents to policy-making and legislation, Claire will draw on her experience of establishing Westminster Abbey Institute, which seeks to revitalise moral and spiritual values in public life, working with the legislature, the executive and the judiciary and all the Abbey’s public service neighbours around Parliament Square. Claire will consider two issues in bioethics that have challenged law-makers: embryo research and assisted dying.
This lecture is part of the Themed Lecture Series: 'Ethical Standards in Public Life', co-sponsored by the Von Hügel Istitute, St Mary's University Twickenham and Las Casas Institute, Blackfriars Oxford.
