The Scottish Parliament has voted down a Bill that would have made Scotland the first nation in the UK to legalise assisted dying.
MSPs rejected the Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill, brought forward by Liberal Democrat MSP Liam McArthur, by 57 to 69, with Health Secretary Neil Gray having announced earlier in the day he would abstain.
The decision came after opponents of the Bill raised concerns about the impact the legislation could have on vulnerable and disabled people, while others raised concerns about a lack of safeguards for medical professionals opting out of the process.
