Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Access to Justice and Legal Costs: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Gerry Hassett:

Is the Deputy pointing to any specific things we said? It is difficult to respond to that in a general space. What we have been campaigning on is that the cost of claims is too high, and the Central Bank report absolutely bears that out. Injury claim cases are now 75% of all motor claims, up from 59% at the start of the decade, and the average cost per claim is up by 64%.
