I propose to take Questions Nos. 477 and 478 together.
The number of people on the active waiting list for a kidney transplant as of 3 May 2016 (latest figures available) was 476.
The number of kidney transplants performed each year since 2011 was as follows:
Year | 2011 | 2012 | 2013 | 2014 | 2015 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Deceased Kidney Transplants | 165 | 131 | 147 | 112 | 120 |
Living Kidney Donor Transplants | 27 | 32 | 38 | 40 | 33 |
Total Kidney Transplants | 192 | 163 | 185 | 152 | 153 |
