QUEBEC — The provincial government will study presumed consent for organ donation in a parliamentary committee.

“There will be a parliamentary committee that will be responsible for examining all of the processes related to organ donation and transplant, including prevention, awareness raising, staff training, collaborative work with Transplant Québec, and, of course, the whole aspect of consent,” said the Minister responsible for Seniors, Sonia Bélanger, in a press briefing that brought together representatives of the three opposition parties.
