Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow

The €100 million fund, as the Deputy is aware, is being allocated to section 39 organisations and others, including nursing homes, specifically to address the issues the Deputy has just raised. It is for additional costs, for example, driving patients from home to clinical settings. I cannot comment on the individual organisation just yet. If Deputy Murphy sends me a note on it, I will ask the Department and the HSE to take a look. On the broader question of whether the €100 million fund be used for issues such as this, that is exactly what it is intended for.
