I propose that, as there was a full and recent parliamentary debate on this issue, a copy of the report on organ donation, together with a transcript of the Dáil session on 21 February, be forwarded to the petitioner, stating these issues have been raised on the parliamentary agenda through both the sectoral committee and the debate in the Dáil Chamber. They have been dealt with and recommendations made will be considered in the context of legislation in the forthcoming human tissue Bill. As the issue has been dealt with through the appropriate parliamentary channels, I propose that the petition be closed.
