TRAFFICKING IN HUMAN ORGANS AND TISSUES
(9228/03)
Letter from Vernon Coaker MP, Parliamentary
Under Secretary of State, Home Office to the Chairman
On 29 March 2004[180]
my predecessor, Caroline Flint, wrote to you explaining the then
current position in relation to the above draft framework decision
and stated that any future developments would be notified to the
Committee.
As you are aware the negotiations on this framework
decision were suspended during the period of the Greek Presidency
of the Council of Europe. Following a review of subsidarity, the
Commission has recommended withdrawal of this dossier as actions
at bilateral and United Nations level are deemed more appropriate
due to the international nature of this issue. Consequently, withdrawal
of the dossier is expected to be inevitable. It is therefore unlikely
to be a live issue for the consideration of the European Committee.
