Mr. Noel Waters:
I was there as a child also. However, it has been improved and we are working to improve all facilities. One of the key issues which was referenced in the McMahon report is that people need independence in their lives. One of the best means of ensuring independence is providing the opportunity to cook for oneself. We already have this opportunity in Mosney and are working with other centres to ensure it will be implemented as quickly as possible.
