Mr. Pat Healy:

That does not happen at all in the nursing home support scheme. There is no question of that. As I said earlier, the fund on the public side is for the cost of care.

On the private side, the price is for a very specific set of services to be provided, including bed, board, a certain number of aids and appliances and laundry. That is the cost and that is what is to be delivered. There is no question of paying more for those services. Obviously, as we said earlier, there are additional elements if people, for example, get their hair done. They might have to pay for that but there is no specific extra cost or charge for the core services.
