Professor Jan Remmelink (27 April 1922, Zelhem - 15 May 2003, Groningen) was Attorney General of the High Council of the Netherlands from 1968 to 1989. He headed the Dutch government committee on euthanasia that released the first, official study of the practice of euthanasia in the Netherlands in 1991. Internationally this report - Medical Decisions About the End of Life, also called the Remmelink Report - has led to much discussion.
