Insurance Costs for Small and Medium Businesses: Discussion
Mr. Jackie McMahon:
The frequency is broadly in line. The level of cost is beginning to moderate. It is still slightly high but it is moderating. I wish to echo the Mr. Cahalan's points about the accidents themselves. Some of the cases that cross my desk are absolutely horrific. So much pain, damage and suffering is inflicted on people. We are working hard with the Irish Farmers Association, IFA, and with our people on the ground to give the best advice possible. We also sponsor and support several farm safety initiatives through FBD Trust.
