Healthcare Surveillance Authority in the frame of commenting on the amendment to the act on health care proposes to introduce the regulation of the export of tissues abroad. This is the reaction to the recent case, when private tissue institution did not use the collected tissues for Slovak recipients, but exported them to other countries. Current legislation dealing with tissues does not content any conditions and restrictions of the export and import of tissues to other countries.
