HC Deb 31 January 2002 vol 379 c446W
Matthew Green

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions (1) what action he is taking to encourage councils to include organ donor registration forms in their electoral registration form; [31350]

(2) how many councils include organ donor registration forms in their electoral registration form. [31351]

Dr. Whitehead

While it is the responsibility of each electoral registration officer (ERO) to decide what additional literature to include when issuing electoral registration forms, we asked the Association of Electoral Administrators, prior to the canvass in October 2000, to encourage EROs to include organ donation literature. Information about how many EROs do this is not collected.
