I move amendment No. 8:
In page 27, to delete lines 32 to 34 and substitute the following: “(b) the removal of the organ for the purpose of transplantation is for therapeutic benefit and no reward has been or is to be given, and there is no other alternative therapeutic method of comparable effectiveness;”.
Amendments Nos. 8, 11 and 13 are similar and relate to the same issue. The amendments are in response to correspondence we received from a number of people who, having gone through transplants, raised concerns with us and asked us to table amendments. I will listen to the Minister's reply.
