General Scheme of the Personal Injuries Resolution Board Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Peter Boland:

The first aspect is an establishment of trust. PIAB has been exceptional in the way that it has transformed the personal injury claims landscape, although it has it has been fundamentally undermined over the years by various challenges. As policyholders, we very much trust PIAB to be able to provide the data, subject to data protection restrictions to anyone who is entitled to the data. When I say anyone who is entitled to it, I refer to people who would have to have a genuine interest in it. Needless to say, that includes all insurers, if they are quoting in the market, as well as other bodies, such as the Motor Insurers Bureau of Ireland and self-insured entities of which there are many operating in this country.
