I propose to take Questions Nos. 634 and 672 together.
The paper format driving licence currently in use contains an optional section where the licence holder may, if he or she so wishes, indicate consent to be an organ donor. I am considering the introduction of a plastic card licence, having regard to developments at EU level. Consideration will be given as part of development of the card licence system as to whether optional information regarding organ donation might be recorded on the card licence. In the context of organ donation, I consider that it would be more appropriate for a prospective organ donor to positively consent to donation as currently provided.
