Motor insurance claims database
Tom Neville asked when a national claims information database for motor insurance would be introduced. The Taoiseach said work was under way, legislation was progressing, and he would check the timing and revert.
Is there any update on a deadline for the introduction of a national claims information database in respect of the high cost of motor insurance? Could the Taoiseach clarify when this might come through the Houses?

I thank the Deputy for raising that question. The Minster of State at the Department of Finance, Deputy Michael D'Arcy, is doing a lot of work to bring down the cost of insurance for people and business. I understand that legislation is going through the House. I do not have an exact date but I will check it out and get back to the Deputy.
