Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Cost of Doing Business in Ireland: National Competitiveness Council

Professor Peter Clinch:

I could not agree more with the Deputy.

The cost of insurance working group should ensure these data become available; it is in its remit and part of its mandate. I hope we will soon have better data on that area and also other areas where there are some gaps, for example in legal services, which also has a relationship to the cost of insurance. We are certainly in agreement on that.
