Officials of my Department have met five times with the social services inspectorate since May 2005 in relation to the extension of the social service inspectorate's remit to include residential facilities for older persons. Officials from my Department, the social services inspectorate and the HSE also met officials from the Department of Health, Social Services and Personal Security in Northern Ireland yesterday to discuss with them their experiences with regard to the inspection of residential facilities for older persons.
