Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

I have raised this issue continually as the drama of Setanta Insurance has unfolded. While people will be relieved that the Supreme Court has made this judgment, it will come as a crushing blow to many motorists who are waiting for payouts in light of the 65% cap to which Deputy McGrath has referred and the upper limit of €825,000 imposed on payouts.

Some families have been left in a situation in which they are no longer mobile and the cost of their claims are far in excess of that. The cap would be cruel. Will the cap of 65% up to a limit of €825,000 be lifted and will the Minister direct the liquidator to begin immediately payouts to and communication with those who have been waiting for many years?
