Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Can the minister confirm that many of the problems identified at Plumpton Villa were clearly long running, some dating back to when the facility was accredited in September 2005? Why has this facility been given a further eight months to get its act together with no threat of any sanction in the meantime? Should residents in this facility have to wait that long to get the quality care they deserve?
