| 7 |
| Sec. 6-110. Licenses issued to drivers.

| (b) Until the Secretary of State establishes a First Person | 5 |
| Consent organ and tissue donor registry under Section 6-117 of | 6 |
| this Code, the Secretary of State shall provide a format on the | 7 |
| reverse of
each driver's license issued which the licensee may | 8 |
| use to execute a document
of gift conforming to the provisions | 9 |
| of the Illinois Anatomical Gift Act.
The format shall allow the | 10 |
| licensee to indicate the gift intended, whether
specific | 11 |

signatures of the donor and 2 witnesses. The Secretary | 13 |

the Secretary | 16 |

under | 17 |
| no compulsion to execute a document of gift. A brochure
| 18 |
| explaining this method of executing an anatomical gift document | 19 |

to each applicant or licensee. The brochure | 20 |
| shall advise the applicant or
licensee that he or she is under | 21 |
| no compulsion to execute a document of
gift, and that he or she | 22 |
| may wish to consult with family, friends or clergy
before doing | 23 |
| so. The Secretary of State may undertake additional efforts,
| 24 |
| including education and awareness activities, to promote organ | 25 |
| and tissue
donation.
