It is incredible that people generously donate their organs and I am not just saying that because the donors are present. I read a newspaper article published in the Irish Examiner about a family in Kilcully, White's Cross, County Cork. I do know what I would do if asked to donate. I thank everybody for coming here.
People hold varying views on organ donation but they must not damage the approach that the committee and delegations wish to reach. We must ensure that the matter does not become divisive in the broader context of encouraging more people to give life.
