Governments across the Channel Islands have stated their intention to follow England, Scotland and Wales’ policy on gay men giving blood.
Previously, gay men were not allowed to give blood if they have had sex with another man within three months.
However, the new rules mean they will no longer be asked whether they have been sexually active with another partner.
Jersey’s government hopes to change this by next year.
Meanwhile, Guernsey Health and Social Care Committee (HSC) intends to follow this move too.
