Health information and organ donation Bills
Joan Collins asks about delayed health information and human tissue Bills and the promised soft opt-out organ donation system. The Tánaiste expects the health information Bill later this year and says organ donation may form part of the undated human tissue Bill.
Cystic Fibrosis Ireland is concerned about the lack of progress on two Bills, the health information Bill and the human tissue Bill, both of which are promised since 2009. When will they come before the Dáil? Also, when will the Government introduce the soft opt-out organ donation promised in the 2012 programme for Government?

The health information Bill should come before the House later this year. I do not have any date for the human tissue Bill.
