Does Mr. Harty have figures on the typical cost to the State of supporting somebody to stay in the home as opposed to the typical cost through the nursing home scheme? I accept some people are higher dependency than others and perhaps, eventually, have to be in a long-stay facility. Has Mr. Harty the numbers to back up what he is saying?
