Mr. Paul Reid:

I understand and empathise completely with the distress that deaths in nursing homes have caused to families all over the country. Regarding Dealgan House specifically, the Deputy is correct concerning the approach taken by the RCSI hospitals group. That approach was taken for a range of reasons. I am not personally familiar with the direct request to meet, but I will arrange some discussions with local management, in the first instance, through the RCSI hospitals group.
