Micheál Martin (Cork South-Central, Fianna Fail)

The testimony of Paul Guy has been very impactful. As I said earlier to Deputy Bacik, who raised this question on Leaders' Questions, it is very traumatic for families generally with loved ones in nursing homes but particularly for the Guy family. Legislation is already in place to deal with what happened in these nursing homes. We do not need new adult safeguarding legislation to deal with what happened to Audeon Guy. It should not have happened. It was abuse.
