I actually think this is a good idea, yes we maybe already have a system whereby people can opt INTO organ donation but many people (myself included) are more likely to make the effort to opt OUT of a scheme if it goes against our beliefs.Personally speaking, when I die I would much rather think that someone elses life could be saved by using one of my organs than have them wasted............let's face it once we are dead we don't need them do we? The present system also means the doctors have to not only break news of a loved ones death but also ask the awkward question of "may we please use part of your loved ones body to potentially save someone elses life?" ....... that is hardly pleasant for either the doctor OR the family.The only concern I would have about this proposed system woudl be whether they are also going to apply the same rules to children ....... I'd hate to think that their organs could be removed without parental consent.
