I certainly welcome that because the level of dependency that I have seen in public nursing homes in Galway and in the county, when we had one in Galway, was extraordinary. There is a facile debate, not even a debate but a facile public relations campaign, going on into private nursing homes to suggest they are much cheaper. Certainly I welcome that as the complexity of finance for public nursing homes is not being looked at.
