Question:389 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health and Children why there is such a long delay in making a decision on an application for an enhanced nursing home subvention by a person (details supplied) in County Cork, despite the fact that the nursing home has indicated that it cannot keep this person indefinitely due to the huge gap between the subvention being paid and the new rate of ?620 per week being charged by the nursing home.
