Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform

Estimates for Public Services 2015: Vote 13 - Office of Public Works

2:00 pm

Mr. Tony Smyth:

We have asked Insurance Ireland for various metrics in relation to the response to what might occur. The difficulty for it is that it does not have bench marketed data pre-scheme to know the level of premiums and the number of people covered in a particular area. In terms of post-works analysis to see what the improvement is, we have asked that this should commence and that it should be looking at that in order to inform whether the policy is working. We are providing it with the information and that should impact on the availability of insurance. To test that, one needs data and we have asked it to provide the data.
