Memorandum by The Pagan Federation
Q1. There are
no particular aspects of organ donation and transplantation which
are considered ethically problematic within the context of our
members religious beliefs.
Q2. There is
no significant tendency for individuals from our faith group to
oppose organ donation either for themselves or for a family member
on the basis of individual interpretation of religious teaching.
Q3. Our members
would find a system of presumed consent for organ donation (unless
they had specifically opted out) in the UK ethically acceptable.
Q4. Our members
do not hold any specific views regarding a presumption that members
of any particular group should be assumed to be opted out as a
whole.
