There is a significant political controversy growing around nursing home residents who may have been "illegally charged" for care.
The story, exposed in the Irish Mail on Sunday, alleges that the Government developed a legal strategy so that it would not have to reimburse nursing home residents and their families in instances where they may not have had to pay fees.
While the story is complex, it has rocked the coalition with Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and a range of other senior ministers expected to answer questions about what they did or did not know.
