Court challenges may hit nursing home refunds, warns Ahern
The Government’s multi-million refund scheme for illegal nursing home charges may be hit by court actions by people who feel entitled to money, Taoiseach Bertie Ahern warned today.
He told the Dáil that the Cabinet had tried to plug all legal loopholes in the repayment system which will dole out more than €850m to thousands of patients and their families.
