[edit] Rights of the Lisa Act (Australia)
This act does not appear to exist. The only references in search engines point back to Wikipedia or mirrors. Bollar 03:17, July 18, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. A hoax? Gwk 03:21, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete From the most cursory research on the subject it appears euthanasia laws are determined on a state to state basis in Australia. I found nothing specific to "Lisa", and nothing to indicate there is a national policy on the issue. If there is maybe the article should be expanded and appropriate links included.

- Delete. No such act. The Rights of the Terminally Ill Act was passed in the Northern Territory in 1995 as a Private Members Bill introduced by then Chief Minister Marshall Perron. The Federal Parliament then passed the Voluntary Euthanasia Laws Act authored by Kevin Andrews removing the power from the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory in 1997 - Australian states still have the power to legislate if they wished but none has. No-one would look for the Rights of the Terminally Ill Act under such a name so no need for a redirect. Capitalistroadster 04:19, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
