The Taoiseach will recall that on Wednesday, 14 June, during Leaders' Questions, I raised a number of issues with him on the emergency situation the nursing home sector is facing, especially the private and voluntary nursing home sector. During his response, he claimed there was a net increase in the number of nursing home beds available in this State in 2022. I believe this statement to be factually incorrect. HIQA’s report for 2022 states clearly there was an overall net reduction of 168 in the number of registered beds. I wrote to the Taoiseach following this but his office has still not acknowledged my email. I would be happy if he would indicate his willingness to correct the Dáil record on this matter as soon as possible.
