I think the government feels it's too politically sensitive. I don't see it as a realistic prospect for a long time, given we've just passed the Human Tissue Act. So, we still have the shortfall, hence discussions about buying organs. |
There's sympathy for that position. People think it's a defensible way to address the shortfall for transplantation. It's not a crude two-way process between individuals. People argue you could develop a brokering system within the NHS that could act as a third-party and control prices and make sure everything was safe and fair. |
