In response to National resolution 2011.03 National Organ and Tissue Donation and Transplantation Registry [EH]
Members at St. Patrick Fallowfield Parish Council hosted an information night for all.
Did you know?
You need to register even if you signed a donor card. A signed donor card is not recorded in the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care’s database and may not be available when needed. Organ and tissue donor registration is the only secure and guaranteed way to make your decision to save lives known.
The resolution action plan asks all members to write to their MPs in support of a national registry. A sample letter is attached below.
In response to National resolution 2010.01 Chrysotile Asbestos [CL]
Members at Our Lady of Fatima continually monitor the acts and reactions to the Chrysotile Asbestos mining in Quebec. Recently the Quebec company exporting chrysotile asbestos is in process of filing for bankruptcy. Please continue to write the Prime Minister, Ministers for Health, Justice, Natural Resources and Foreign Affairs to stop exporting and ban the mining of Chrysotile Asbestos. We want to make sure the company does not receive a government 'helping hand'.
