Seventy per cent of New Zealanders polled in a Research New Zealand online panel have stated they are in favour of the legislation which allows terminally-ill adults to request a medically-assisted death. A binding referendum will be held at the 2020 general election on whether to implement David Seymour's End of Life Choice bill into law. Research NZ partner Emanuel Kalafatelis is with us to analyse the results.
