Written Answers. - Nursing Home Act.
Negotiations are under way with the nursing home associations and other interest groups about a new system of subventing persons in nursing homes under the Health (Nursing Homes) Act, 1990. It is my intention to implement the Act when agreement has been reached with the interest groups concerned on the new subvention system.
