Bill

Bill S-223, An Act to amend the Criminal Code and the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (trafficking in human organs)

Vote

Yea.

Rationale

The Bill’s proposed offences address some gaps in existing criminal law. For example, human trafficking offences prohibit trafficking persons to extract their organs, but do not prohibit conduct related to purchasing organs, such as transplant tourism.

Passed.
