France Approves Assisted Dying Law but Rejects Social Media Ban for Under 15s The French National Assembly has approved a landmark assisted dying law, marking a significant shift in the country's stance on end of life care.
The new legislation allows patients who are terminally ill or suffering from an incurable disease to request medical assistance with dying.
To qualify for assisted dying, patients must be at least 18 years old and have a terminal illness or condition that is incurable.
