Will the Minister clarify a point in respect of the monetary jurisdiction levels which the Bill is setting? When does the Minister intend to make those operable within the Courts Service?
Will the Minister offer a comment on another matter? In recent days there has been some commentary and media interest in the Bill, especially from the insurance industry. Some have quoted Ms Dorothea Dowling, chairperson of the Injuries Board. The comments have flagged concerns of consequential knock-ons or potential increases in insurance premiums which would affect all of us, the public and consumers. I imagine the Minister has taken that on board. Has he any comment on it?
