Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Congregated Settings: Nursing Homes (Resumed)

Mr. David Walsh:

I am not sure what the Deputy means by remedial works. In fact, as part of the capital programme, there is a very significant amount of pretty serious capital work yet to be done before the overall standard is met. Certainly, services worked within the limitations of their physical infrastructure to meet the standards and implement the infection control guidance with assistance from local departments of public health and from their consultant colleagues from hospitals.
