Report on Long-Stay Care Charges: Motion.
3:00 pm
Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail)
The answer in regard to complaints is "no". This was not a major issue in terms of people coming to us in advice centres. The big issue, as the Deputy will agree, is private nursing home charges and the difference between the nursing home subvention and the cost people must pay. If I was to say what was significant judging by the barometer of the people coming to my advice centres on a regular basis, that remains a core issue.
