New legislation on organ donation must be supported by additional specialist staff in hospitals so all families are offered the chance to donate, one of the leading experts in the country has said.
Dr Catherine Motherway, HSE Organ Donation and Transplant Ireland clinical lead, said it is not clear whether more donations will follow from the Human Tissue Bill.
