Ms Oonagh Buckley:

That is the sort of policy decision a Government would have to take, and probably an incoming Government. They would be the sort of decisions that the caretaker Government would find difficult to achieve. If I was asked to prepare such a proposal, I could certainly look at that. Obviously, we have some sterling examples of people who have worked very hard in places such as care settings who live within our centres, many of whom have permission to remain, as it happens, but some of whom do not. There would be, perhaps, ways of adjusting some of our more individual considerations that could allow us to do that if we were so asked by a Government.
