What BNN the broadcasting company wanted to make clear is that in The Netherlands there is a shortage of donors. This is due to the fact that in the Netherlands you have to explicitly declare they can use organs after your death. A lot of people in the Netherlands never fill in the form, relatives usually will not give permission to use any organs because it was never a topic discussed with the deceased.
The dutch government is to hesitant to make a law that will allow organ donation unless you have explicitly denied the use of your organs after death.
