I find it slightly incredible that Mr. Daly is not aware of even the rough figure. This is a key issue because if a person working in the private nursing home sector wakes up in the morning with a sore throat or a temperature, there may be something going on. If that person has take-home wages of less than €350 per week, there is an economic incentive or an economic pressure on him or her to go into work and take a risk. Does Mr. Daly agree with that analysis?
