<p>As a Departmental Expert Committee the Advisory Committee on the Safety of Blood
Tissues and Organs (SaBTO) does not undertake or commission research directly. SaBTO
is carrying out a review of selection criteria for donation of blood, tissues and
cells. The review will be wide-ranging and comprehensive and will include evidence
relating to the risks of blood-borne infections in people who have previously injected
drugs or received money or drugs for sex. Should any gaps be identified in the course
of the review, SaBTO could make research recommendations.</p>
