Commenting on the Welsh Assembly Government’s statement on the Proposed Organ and Tissue Donation Legislative Competence Order, Nick Ramsay AM, Shadow Minister for Health and Social Services said:
“We welcome this bid to seek the powers to address the shortage of organs for transplant, which is denying hope to many patients across Wales.
“Given the serious issues of conscience and the complex legal questions surrounding these proposals, we must ensure that sufficient time is allowed for detailed scrutiny of the implications and a thorough examination of how an opt-out scheme could work.”
