<p>Organ donation policy is a devolved matter. NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) collects
data on organ donation and transplantation across the United Kingdom. The latest activity
data for Wales can be found in full on NHSBT’s website.</p><p> </p><p>The following
table shows there has been no notable change in Welsh deceased donation figures since
the change in legislation on 1 December 2015:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Country
of hospital of donor death</p></td><td><p>2014/15</p></td><td><p>2015/16</p></td><td><p>2016/17</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Wales</p></td><td><p>60</p></td><td><p>64</p></td><td><p>61</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>
</p><p>NHSBT’s statistical analysis indicates that, due to small numbers of donors
in Wales, it may be three or four years before there are sufficient numbers to provide
enough evidence to determine the true impact of the change in legislation.</p>
