Organ Donation Bill debate resumespublished at 14:52 Greenwich Mean Time 8 February 2022
That concludes Question Time and so MLAs return to their earlier final stage debate on the Organ and Tissue Donation (Deemed Consent) Bill.
One person who is delighted to see the legislation going through its last hurdle at the assembly is five-year-old Dáithí MacGabhann.
His family have campaigned for the law change as he needs a heart transplant.
When opening the debate, the health minister said the legislation will be known as Dáithí’s Law once it’s enacted.
Our health correspondent Marie-Louise Connelly snapped a picture of Mr MacGabhann outside parliament buildings earlier today.
