I have a brief question for the brokers. Reference was made to Quinn Insurance, which is gone now. It charged a low premium and settled claims quickly. It was fine if one did not have a claim and but if one had a claim, it might have been a bit difficult. I am not sure that Ms O'Callaghan's point about windscreen cover is particularly valid. I have been driving more than 20 years and I have had never had a windscreen replaced. If motorists are not getting their windscreens replaced, it does not matter what is the replacement cost. If 20% or 30% of drivers were getting them replaced, that would be a different figure. I do not have the statistics on the number of windscreen replacements.
