I take the Deputy's point and also the point about the data. We have to get to the bottom of that matter and I give a commitment that I will do so. Also, if there are particular needs in the Cork area, I will absolutely deal with them. The reality is that we have been investing in respite care services for the past three years. I will travel to Naas in two weeks' time to open our 12th respite care house, just to let Deputy O'Loughlin know. I have not yet picked a date.
