Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Housing for Older People: Discussion (Resumed)
12:00 pm
Mr. Niall Redmond:
We keep a close eye on the weekly reporting of delayed discharges. I do not have a figure but we can get it for the committee without any difficulty. Obviously, it can change quite considerably from week to week. The last figure I have in my mind dates from 16 March, which was the tail end of winter, so it would have been particularly high. The figure for people who are destined to go home and who are waiting for home supports was about 136 at that point.
