A Halton Police spokesperson said Thursday the Acton woman is still recovering, but doing well. Reached in hospital earlier this week Arnott said, "I miss my family." The woman said she felt fine, and just wants to go home. Police have said she will remain in hospital until social services finds her a new home. Arnott's daughter Bonnie Bouclair, 60, and granddaughter Kimberly Bouclair, 36, of Acton have both been charged with failing to provide the necessities of life and are to appear in Milton court on August 25. As part of the bail conditions, Arnott will not be placed back in the custody of her daughter and granddaughter.

No date has been set yet to hear the appeal. The Norval bar's liquor licence will remain valid and it can continue selling alcohol until the Ontario Court of Appeal makes a decision on the appeal. Divisional Court dismissed Nashville North's appeal of the revocation of its licence last month. The AGCO revoked the bar's liquor licence in December 2004 after AGCO board members found the bar violated the Liquor Control Act on several occasions in 2003 by serving liquor to intoxicated patrons, allowing overcrowding and not being in the public interest. In January 2005, the AGCO issued another notice of proposal to revoke Nashville North's liquor licence based on several incidents alleged to have occurred in the bar in 2004.
