I note on the InsuranceLink site that there is a statement which states that “the cost of falsified, exaggerated and-or duplicated claims in Ireland has been estimated to be in excess of €100 million annually, which ends up being paid by honest citizens”. There are therefore huge issues. We are looking at the proposal under head 24, that the alliance calls on the Department to initiate the transfer of Insurance Ireland’s claim status sharing platform InsuranceLink into the ownership of PIAB or PIRB. How would that benefit the legislation and the premium payers?
