Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Rising Cost of Motor Insurance: Discussion (Resumed)

11:00 am

Mr. Paul Redmond:

Previous speakers spoke about taking these small whiplash claims and dealing with them in some way, probably through the injuries board, and letting them be forced to settle at that level. If one can contain it at that level, as Mr. Conor Faughnan said the other day, one will stop the legal profession literally hoovering money out of the system. It is not just about awards, but everything that goes around it.
