Dr. Fergal Lynch:

It is not information we have at the moment but we can check it for the Deputy. One of the witnesses earlier referred to her own particular experience in this regard but I do not know whether it is representative. It is probably reasonable to speculate that given the low cost of insurance - €60 per child per year, as I said - there is not a very high degree of claiming. Certainly, when people in the sector were expressing concerns late last year about rising costs, the point they were making, among others, was that the increases were not the result of major claims or a major number of claims. If we can get the information the Deputy is seeking, we will pass it on to him but I do not have it at the moment.
