I strongly endorse John Grima’s and Hugh Peralta’s suggestion that organ and tissue donation should be promoted in Malta (‘Organ transplant’, August 14; ‘Dying for an Organ’, August 24).

Organ and tissue donation saves and enhances the lives of our incapacitated fellows. The easiest way of promoting organ donation is by including in ID card renewal forms two questions that serve as a valuable reference in critical emergency situations: the card holder’s blood type and the registration of the bearer’s consent to donate his/her organs and tissues.
