Subject: SCI.CRYONICS Australian Euthanasia Legislation online!
Date: Sun, 11 Jun 1995 02:43:57 +1000 (EST)

The details about the new Australian voluntary euthanasia (assisted suicide)
legislation are now available on the web. Just point your browsers at

http://www.nla.gov.au/nt/rotti/rotti.html

I haven't looked at the bill in detail yet, but I'm about to. Questions that
that suspension service folk here might like to consider:

. Would there be any significant advantage to combining euthanasia with 
  perfusion/cooling protocols?

. If there were such an advantage, would your service undertake to perform
  such combined procedures given the controversy that they would produce?

. If your service would offer such procedures, will you attempt to take 
  advantage of the Australian legislation to provide them?
