Nursing Homes Support Scheme (Amendment) Bill 2021: Report and Final Stages
Dail Éireann — 2021-07-14
============================================================

Danny Healy-Rae (IND), Kerry

I ask the Minister of State for clarification. If one person is in a nursing home and the other person is at home and not availing of the fair deal scheme, is the assessment based on 7.5% of the value of the farm, house or whatever, or is it 3.75%? Does the three-year or six-year cap apply for a couple? Will the Minister of State please clarify that?
