  1. Updated the impact assessment to correct 2 errors: in paragraph 68 and figure 4, presentational correction to reflect that the 鈥榟igh scenario鈥� assisted death estimates are based on trend observed in Oregon from 2013 to 2022, rather than 2014 to 2023; and in table 4, to correct the proportion of assisted deaths under the high scenario in year 1 from 0.13% to 0.11%. All impacts derived from the year 1 high scenario have therefore been adjusted across the impact assessment. All corrected sections have a footnote added to explain the adjustments. See the correction notice on the last page of the impact assessment for further information.
