Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Childcare: Impact of Covid-19 (Resumed)
Ms Teresa Heeney:
On the insurance question, we have only one underwriter. That obviously does not lead to competition in the insurance marketplace. Early Childhood Ireland has aligned itself with the Alliance for Insurance Reform in order to work with the next Government on addressing that issue. With the new single agency mooted in the programme for Government, we would certainly think that the issue of insurance should be one of the first items on its agenda.
