"I welcome this document – the donation of tissues and cells must be voluntary, not for profit or other financial gain. I agree entirely with the condition that the removal of tissues and cells for the benefit of recipients may only be carried out under two conditions: it must be done with a medical or scientific and therapeutic aim, and all the elements removed must be donated without any payment being made. It is essential to avoid any practices that are at odds with ethics when removing tissues or cells, and this should only be carried out by professionals in the field. I believe that a few things can be singled out in order to avoid non-transparent donation. Firstly, public awareness raising – publicity campaigns ensuring clear and scientifically based information for donors and recipients, from consenting to donation to the consequences of transplantation. Secondly, traceability must be ensured from donor to patient, while maintaining anonymity and applying the highest standards of quality of tissues and cells for transplantation, particularly in the case of third countries. The European Commission also has a special role to play in monitoring the morally sensitive donation system, based on the implementation of the principles of anonymity and volunteerism. Action must be taken as soon as possible if potential violations are observed in the Member States, particularly in the case of financial compensation."@en1
