Revenue’s role in the Nursing Home Support scheme is confined to that of collection agent for the Health Service Executive (HSE) in respect of loan funding provided under the Ancillary State Support scheme.

The table sets out the loan amounts and associated interest recovered by Revenue for the years 2011 to 2017 (year to date) inclusive.

Revenue has no role to play in the wider Nursing Home Support scheme.
