Deirdre Clune
Ceist:162 Ms Clune asked the Minister for Health and Children if he has any plans to review the provision whereby it is considered that ownership of a house generates an income when considering eligibility for nursing home subvention; if his attention has been drawn to the hardship this provision is making for owners of properties which are deemed to be of substantial value in view of the increase in house prices; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
