On that point, the fair deal funding is not supposed to be used for the under-65s. We are breaking our own rules by using it for the under-65s. Surely some flexibility can be found to create a better instrument to get that money. We are already breaking rules in using it for people under the age of 65. Are we breaking our rules in moving people on out of hospital and putting them into a nursing home?
