Euthanasia is currently illegal in New Zealand as two attempts at passing legislation on legalised euthanasia failed to get through Parliament.
 It is also illegal to 'aid and abet suicide' under Section 179 of the New Zealand Crimes Act 1961.
 The clauses of this act make it an offence to 'incite, procure or counsel' and 'aid and abet' someone else to commit suicide, regardless of whether a suicide attempt is made or not.
 Section 179 covers both assisted suicide and true suicide, such as that caused by bullying.
Euthanasia in the Netherlands is regulated by the "Termination of Life on Request and Assisted Suicide (Review Procedures) Act" from 2002.
 It states that euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide are not punishable if the attending physician acts in accordance with criteria of due care.
 These criteria concern the patient's request, the patient's suffering (unbearable and hopeless), the information provided to the patient, the absence of reasonable alternatives, consultation of another physician and the applied method of ending life.
 To demonstrate their compliance, the Act requires physicians to report euthanasia to a review committee.
The Peaceful Pill Handbook is a book setting out information on assisted suicide and voluntary euthanasia.
 It was originally published in the U.S. in 2006 and was written by the Australian doctors Philip Nitschke and Fiona Stewart.
 In 2008 the on-line handbook was launched.
 Called "The Peaceful Pill eHandbook", it contains video clips on assisted suicide and voluntary euthanasia methods and related issues, but does not provide "how-to" instructions.
 The eHandbook is updated six times a year.
 A German edition of the print book — "Die Friedliche Pille" — was published in 2011.
 A French edition — "La Pilule Paisible" — was published in June 2015.
The Future of Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia is a 2006 book by Neil Gorsuch.
 The book presents legal and moral arguments against euthanasia and assisted suicide, advocating for the retention of bans on the practices.
 It explores case histories from jurisdictions that have legalized the practice, including Oregon and the Netherlands.
Bert Keizer (born 1947 in Amersfoort) is a Dutch writer and physician.
 He studied philosophy in Nottingham from 1968, then medicine in Amsterdam from 1972 where he graduated from in 1981.
 Keizer then worked as a doctor in Kenya, and later in a nursing home in Amsterdam.
 As a physician in a nursing home he has written about physician assisted suicide (which has been legal in the Netherlands for some years), most notably in his book "Het refrein is Hein", which was translated into English (by Keizer himself) as "Dancing with Mr D".
 His style is contemplative, with an undercurrent of realism (or some would say pessimism) about the limits of medicine which most people prefer not to think about, and a remarkable intellectual honesty about the emotions of the patient as well as the physician.
 While the topic of euthanasia and assisted suicide was the most salient point for the literary criticism, it is not a very large part of the book.
Suicide tourism, or euthanasia tourism, is the practice of potential suicide candidates travelling to a jurisdiction to commit assisted suicide or suicide.
 In some jurisdictions, assisted suicide is legal.
Neil McGill Gorsuch ( ; born August 29, 1967) is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States.
 President Donald Trump nominated Gorsuch to succeed Antonin Scalia.
A euthanasia device is a machine engineered to allow an individual to die quickly with minimal pain.
 The most common devices are those designed to help terminally ill people die by voluntary euthanasia or assisted suicide without prolonged pain.
 They may be operated by a second party, such as a physician, or by the person wishing to die.
 There is an ongoing debate on the ethics of euthanasia and the use of euthanasia devices.
Euthanasia is illegal in most of the United States.
 Physician aid in dying (PAD), or assisted suicide, is legal in the states of Washington DC, California, Colorado, Oregon, Vermont, and Washington; its status is disputed in Montana.
 The key difference between euthanasia and assisted suicide is who administers the lethal dose of medication: Euthanasia entails the physician or another third party administering the medication, whereas assisted suicide requires the patient to self-administer the medication and to determine whether and when to do this.
Assisted suicide, while criminal does not appear to have caused any convictions.
 Although a person who has assisted with the suicide must appear in court, article 37 of the Penal Code (effective 1934) states: "The judges are authorized to forego punishment of a person whose previous life has been honorable where he commits a homicide motivated by compassion, induced by repeated requests of the victim."
.
 Whilst not de jure permitting the act, it has been interpreted to mean that judges may pardon the defendant of their crime, and so de facto authorising assisted suicide.
