I do not want to take up too much time. The delegation stated that the previous investigations ended with agreements and undertakings. Will the witnesses provide more detail on the nature of those agreements and are they public? Was Insurance Ireland involved? How much has the CCPC spent on its campaign encouraging people to switch providers? Is there a contradiction in the CCPC putting its consumer hat on and telling people to shop around while, with its competition hat on, publicly announcing its investigation into industry collusion to keep prices up? Is the CCPC satisfied that it would get a variety of quotes across the spectrum if it sought them?
