For the nursing home support scheme there is €57 million. Did Revenue advance €57 million? Then there are the nursing home support scheme receipts, with the figure of €19 million. Did Revenue collect €19 million? I ask Mr. Cody to explain the two entries because people will probably be surprised to know about this. I am looking at pages 8 and 9 of Revenue's 2017 accounts. I ask Mr. Cody to explain this system to the public. Revenue approaches these people. Is it in scenarios where people defer their payments to later years? I ask Mr. Cody to explain what has happened because I know this gets lost between the HSE and the Department of Health, but Revenue seems to handle the actual transaction.
