Hello.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
I would like to thank our two witnesses for their very informative presentations. Their experience and their work will really help us in our study.
Dr. Dembo, you have already stated that physical suffering, just like psychological suffering, could compromise decision-making as well as free and informed consent. You believe that the individual should be evaluated in both instances.
Does that mean that you believe that we should consider requests on a case‑by‑case basis?
Finally, what should we be assessing?
