Ms Angela Fitzgerald:

What I can say about Emeis is that in my direct engagement with it and in our direct engagement as a regulatory team, it has demonstrated a strong commitment to address the issues. It has demonstrated that by taking necessary actions, which were not imposed on it. We can say that we see very significant challenges in terms of maintaining the management and other capabilities in two of the nursing homes. We are in the process of looking at a number of other ones. We will be happy to provide a comprehensive report to the Minister on our overall assessment when that work is done. We have an obligation to the nursing homes concerned to be fair to them and not to pre-empt that.
