Voluntary assisted dying may soon be possible in Western Australia.
The state government has announced plans to introduce a bill in parliament next year.
An 11-member expert panel, chaired by former West Australian governor Malcolm McCusker, will help draft the bill.
Health Minister Roger Cook says it's important any legislation strikes the right tone.
M-Ps will be allowed a conscience vote, where they can vote on the bill according to their own beliefs, rather than party policy.
