HC Deb 16 March 1998 vol 308 c478W
Dr. Gibson

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what research his Department has evaluated into the advantages of introducing a requirement for individuals to indicate their preferences in regard to organ donation. [34015]

Mr. Boateng

The Department is not aware of any research into this possibility. We are currently considering policy options for increasing organ donation. Organ donation is a very sensitive issue and any action taken must command public confidence.
