Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Health

During the last year, both Minister Donnelly and I, and officials from my Department, have met with a number of groups that advocate for the interests of older people and residents of nursing homes and long-term residential care facilities. I met with representatives from the group referred to by the Deputy on 12 July this year, with members of bereaved families in attendance, and have subsequently corresponded with the Group.
