Ivor Callely (Fianna Fail)

I have a serious difficulty in that the Minister has not quite answered how the HSE will obtain a public bed and the records or accounts it may be able to assess of the public facility. I appreciate what the Minister is saying. Nobody, including nursing home proprietors, would be unwilling to sign up to value for money. That is not an issue but an issue arises in terms of inserting in legislation the wording I read into the record, which is creating an imbalance between the players in the marketplace. If I am reading it wrongly I would like to be corrected. If there is fairness in the marketplace I would be happy to see that wording in the legislation.
