Deputy Sandra McLellan asked the Minister for Health if it is within his power by means of regulations, or if legislation is needed, to require private and voluntary nursing homes who are in the nursing home support scheme to provide a minimum number of places for higher dependency patients in order to avoid cherry-picking by these homes, resulting in higher dependency patients remaining at the back of the queue for places; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
