This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Reflect organ and blood donation in the taxation system.
Organ and blood donation are simple ways people can act philanthropically regardless of wealth or background. With regular shortages of both, reflecting an individuals contribution through tax would encourage many more people to sign up to donate, saving lives and the NHS money in treatments.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We cannot accept your petition in its current form as it does not call for clear action from either the UK Government or Parliament. You could start a new petition setting out your idea in a bit more detail. This does not need to be a fully worked up proposal, but it should explain in general terms how you want organ and blood donation to be reflected in the taxation system. For example, this could be through a tax rebate or tax relief.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
