I thank Sinn Féin for this important motion. I want to add a bit to what Michael has said about St. Mary of the Angels. I was amazed to see the Minister of State shake her head when we said this place is being closed down. It is being closed down by stealth. I will ask her one question. If someone applies today to go in there for long-term care, is there a bed for them? There is not.
