Nursing Home Services

I appreciate that. Were I running Pointe Boise Nursing Home in Salthill and I moved my operation to Pointe Boise on St. Mary's grounds, I would have a legal case to ask to be classified as an ongoing operation as opposed to a start-up or new build. The Minister of State has acknowledged that what the home is prepared to provide is necessary. It seems like an open and shut case. Will the Minister of State bring the matter to the Minister of Health's attention? Can he intervene with the NTPF or is it independent?
