Mr. Finbarr Colfer:

Often, that is the question asked of us. A percentage of inspections are announced, for various reasons. One reason is that in the context of renewal of registration, we may need to access particular personnel, management or staff. More importantly, announced inspections allow residents and their families to know that we are coming and to engage with us. A small percentage of our inspections are announced, but the majority of them are unannounced. All of our risk inspections are unannounced.
