Petition Action

Make organ donation compulsory, with an option to opt out.

Petition Details

Instead of signing up to donate, it would be signing up to not donate. This would increase the amount and availability of organs to people who need them, which would otherwise go to waste.

Additional Information

Lots of people don't mind if their organs are donated, they just never sign up for the organ donation list. Those organs go to waste. If organ donation was compulsory then those organs would automatically go to help someone. If people are against organ donation for any reason then they can sign a non donation register to opt out.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

I'm sorry - we cannot accept duplicate petitions. We think this petition is similar to yours:

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/105722

You might like to sign this petition instead. It is more likely to get more signatures that way.
