Written answers

Government policy is to support older people to live in dignity and independence in their own homes and communities for as long as possible. This is achieved through a range of community based services such as Home Care, Meals-on-Wheels and Respite or Day Care. As this is a service matter it has been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply.
