The ACT Legislative Assembly has voted to make voluntary assisted dying (VAD) legal in the territory from November 2025.

Access will be limited to adults with a condition that is advanced, progressive and expected to cause death and who are approaching the end of their life.

The operation of the scheme will be monitored by an independent oversight board.

The icon is a Gang Gang Cockatoo, which is a pretty cool bird and also the ACT faunal emblem.
