Compulsory Organ donations ?

Compulsory organ donation?
There could be a big change in the law on organ donations. Britain's top doctor is expected to call for people to automatically donate when they die. At the moment there aren't enough livers, kidneys and hearts to go round. There are 7,000 people on the waiting list. On average one of those dies every day. The NHS says it needs three times the number that are currently being donated. There would be an opt-out though. You'd have to register if you didn't want to be on the list.
Have your say
