I wanted to get Mr. Daly's view on the issue before that stage is reached. He mentioned medical cards. Is he of the view that people lose their medical cards when they go into private nursing homes? I did not understand the point he made in his statement in that regard. If a person is entitled to a medical card and goes into a private nursing home, he or she does not lose the entitlement to that medical card. What point was Mr. Daly making in regard to medical cards?
