HC Deb 09 March 1982 vol 19 c395W
48. Mr. Farr

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he is satisfied with the progress of organ donor schemes and that proper privacy is maintained when requested.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

My hon. Friend referred in his reply to the hon. Member for Eccles (Mr. Carter-Jones) on 23 February—[Vol. 18, c.345]—to our current discussions with the medical profession about means of improving the supply of donor kidneys. We are taking this opportunity to consider whether the recommendations on the protection of privacy which at present appear in the code of practice need to be strengthened.
