I thank the Minister of State. Those who work in the home and the residents and their relatives are very concerned about its future. There has been ongoing awareness and protests with a view to keeping the facility open. I have a number of questions. Will the HSE consider taking over the facility on a full-time basis? If not, would other providers be interested in taking it over? The fact the previous provider has gone into liquidation raises all sorts of difficulties with regard to the future of the facility. I thought the ongoing safety concerns raised by HIQA had been resolved. The Minister of State might elaborate on the ongoing concerns arising from the HIQA report.
