Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Developments in the Insurance Industry: Discussion

Mr. Jackie McMahon:

I thank the Deputy for her question. We have at this stage communicated with all the public house claimants. We had quite a process to ensure we could communicate with all of them. Regarding claims where we have received information from publicans, the figure concerned is 220, or about one fifth of what we have overall. We have received information from those people. Slightly fewer than 85 have accepted, and then we have a similar number where the offer is currently with the people concerned. The remaining claims are then at the stage of being assessed.
