Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many people are on NHS waiting lists for pancreas transplants.

Up to date information on the number of people waiting for lung and pancreas transplant can be found on the NHS Blood and Transplant website at:

Five individuals are on the waiting list for intestinal transplants which include the small bowel.

NHS Blood and Transplant does not maintain a national transplant list for corneas and tissues. These lists are maintained at local hospital level with surgical teams requesting corneas and tissues for a specific date. If the requested tissues are available they will then be issued to the hospital by NHS Blood and Transplant. Waiting list figures can fluctuate daily as patients are removed or added to the transplant list as their condition improves or deteriorates.
