Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: June 4429
Description[?]:
| Many people who may wish to donate organs are not aware of the proper procedure.

| Date | 20:22:32, July 25, 2018 CET | From | Democratic Union Party | To | Debating the Opt-out Organ Donation Act 4428 |
| Message | Wouldn't it be more prudent to inform potential organ donors on the procedure before they give their consent, thereby allowing for more stability for organ donations? It appears that this bill assumes that people cannot opt out once they have signed up to donate. Also, by assuming consent, the government opens the door for many other ethical issues to arise |
