22. Motions
The following motions have been received in accordance with Procedure Rule 16: The following motion has been received from Councillor Charlotte Barnes: "There are 10,000 people in the UK that need an organ or tissue transplant and three people in the UK die each day waiting for a much needed organ. Many of these waiting including some who will unfortunately die, live in Shropshire. Shropshire Council wishes to and has a duty to help all its residents to continue to live a healthy and long life. Every unfortunate and unneeded death affects families as well as the local economy. The social consequence of continued ill health and the effect it has on families is of concern to us all. We therefore ask our MPs to join us in supporting the drive to introduce the alteration to the organ donation system. For our residents who need help we wish and support the increase in likely availability of essential organs if an automatic opt in is assumed and then relies on individual’s to opt out if they do not wish any of their organs to be made available for transplant. We would however also support the need that the wishes of loved ones need to be taken note of but are convinced that the numbers of essential organs available to help our residents would increase by adopting this change. And as councillors could we actively promote organ donation in Shropshire."
