View answerThe enactment of the Human Tissue (Transplantation, Post-Mortem, Anatomical Examination and Public Display) Bill is a priority for the Government. The Bill will provide the legal basis for an opt-out system of organ donation and will be supported by a public information campaign.
Drafting of the Bill is at an advanced stage and Government approval for publication will be sought as soon as possible in the autumn session of the Dáil.
