Organ Donation (Deemed Consent) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Tony Lloyd (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 23 February 2018. It occurred during Debate on bills on Organ Donation (Deemed Consent) Bill.

My hon. Friend is making an excellent speech, and I am, of course, here to support him. The sad reality is, however, that behind every organ donation is someone who has died. It is right and proper for there to be facilities for children to receive donated organs, but that means a very sensitive time for the donor’s parents, who have lost a child of their own. How might it be possible to deal sensitively with those families whose children have died?
