The "right to live" organization has gathered at the gates of the Madrid congress to show its disagreement with the euthanasia law approved by the Spanish parliament that definitively approved this Thursday, March 18, the law that decriminalizes euthanasia and regulates medical aid for the right to die and the provision of the national health system. Spain becomes the seventh country in the world where euthanasia will be legal, after the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Colombia, Canada and New Zealand. It may be requested by those of legal age who suffer "a serious and incurable disease" or a "serious, chronic and incapacitating condition" that affects autonomy and that generates "constant and intolerable physical or psychological suffering". A "Guarantee and Evaluation Commission", made up of medical, nursing and legal personnel, will be ultimately responsible for authorizing each euthanasia process. The applicant must confirm the desire to move forward several times and may withdraw at any time. The provision of aid to dying will be included in the portfolio of common services of the National Health System and will be publicly funded. To ensure equality and quality of care in the provision of aid for dying. It will be carried out in public, private, or subsidized health centers, without the access and quality of care of the provision being impaired by the exercise of conscientious objection to health or by the place where it is carried out.
