The head of the Catholic Church in England and Wales has issued a pastoral letter on assisted suicide to be read in the churches of the Archdiocese of Westminster to ensure Catholics are aware of the gravity of what is at stake.
The letter by Cardinal Vincent Nichols, President of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales (CBCEW) and Archbishop of Westminster, which will be read on the weekend of 12-13 October, will address the private members' Bill on assisted suicide that will be introduced to the UK's House of Commons on Wednesday 16 October 2024.
