Operational responsibility for the management and delivery of health and personal social services, including the payment of subvention to residents in private nursing homes, is a matter for the Health Service Executive. Therefore, the Executive is the appropriate body to consider the particular issues raised by the Deputy. The Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have the matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
