Dartford and Gravesham Trust said Mr Carlier's mother-in-law "was not missed" off the treatment list, but instead put on one at another hospital "best suited" to her needs.The next appointment was set for September, but the NHS trust said this had been cancelled due to a "clerical error".

Mr Carlier said the family had to keep chasing the NHS to find out what was happening and eventually decided to pay for the surgery at a private clinic in October as she was in "severe pain"."We could have waited, but she had suffered long enough," he said. "It was all avoidable. It should have been done on the NHS long before that.""They failed her," added his wife Louise.

Mr Carlier said his mother-in-law, whom he described as a "vulnerable pensioner", had been "left out in the cold" by the healthcare system."Whilst the intolerable agony is no longer there, the memories and experience of it have never gone away," he added, claiming she has been left with long-term physical and mental health impacts.

Coins celebrating 150 years of the "flamboyant style and timeless designs" of the emporium Liberty have been unveiled by the Royal Mint.

Liberty was founded in 1875 and is known for the distinctive Tudor-style architecture of its London building and its floral and paisley prints."We congratulate States members for listening to the wishes of Jersey citizens and rejecting the assisted dying ban," she said.

"They have recognised that doing nothing and maintaining the status quo is unconscionable."However, Deputy Barbara Ward, who worked as a nurse for 45 years, was against the proposals and said it should be called "an assisted suicide bill".

Deputy Sir Philip Bailhache shared concern for the impact the plans could have on disabled people.He said if assisted dying was approved, Jersey risked becoming a society that told disabled people their lives are not as valued as those of non-disabled people.
