Mr. Stephen Mulvany:
Our view is that we would not want to see the public element go below its current percentage. We feel there must always be public nursing home provision. Part of the reason for public nursing homes costing more than private ones is that the former take higher dependency, ill elderly patients. We feel that the ratio should not fall any further.
