I understand that but my point is that the body with responsibility for examining whether or not units are fit for purpose is HIQA. It must go in, examine and do all its work and then make a proposal. Notwithstanding what any other agency does, HIQA makes a proposal. My point is that because of the poor quality of stock and buildings, HIQA has recommended, and it has been a consequence of its recommendations, that nursing home units close.
