Mr. George MacGinnis:

The question would be the definition of "precise" in this case. We have identified the quantification at a level that we believe is appropriate for this level of planning. Further work will be required to flesh that out to ascertain whether 1,300 residential care beds is the right number or whether more or less could be done with home care. There will be more detailed work at the implementation stage but the numbers give the committee the order of magnitude and the general shape of the resource requirements for the fair deal scheme, home care packages and residential care beds.
