> The public will get to vote on whether to legalise voluntary euthanasia as New Zealand First threatened to vote down the legislation if it did not go to a referendum, while the Green party demanded more safeguards to ensure that only terminally ill patients would be covered, and could not be coerced. The decision to go to a referendum passed 69–51.
The preceding section of text should probably be moved to the Background section of the article, as it is background on why the referendum exists, instead of being part of the referendum itself. BrythonLexi (talk) 01:43, 15 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Quite right, thank you, and I moved it before even seeing the comment above (and edited the text because the bit about Greens has nothing to do with the referendum). Nurg (talk) 04:00, 25 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
