I am choosing my words very carefully because we do not want to frighten people, but let us imagine somebody rents out his or her property and has a tenant in it. In the case of the owner of the property passing and a debt being due to the HSE under the fair deal scheme, would such a debt be due immediately or would consideration be given to the fact there is a tenant in the property? Can some flexibility be given in that regard? Has there been a conversation around this? I am treading very carefully because I do not like even the nature of this discussion but the witnesses can see the question I am asking.
