Title: | The new Donor Act (active donor registration) |
Description: | The new Donor Act will introduce new rules on organ donation. Currently, organ donation can only take place with explicit consent from the donor or their surviving relatives. This will be replaced by a system of active donor registration. When the new Act comes into force in summer 2020, everyone in the Netherlands aged 18 or older will be registered in the Donor Register. |
