On the insurance (amendment) Bill, among the issues raised in the Supreme Court ruling on the Setanta case was that it provided for an increase from 65% to 100% in the level of coverage provided by the insurance compensation fund, ICF, for third party motorist claims.

This increase will be funded by the insurance industry and a mechanism will be put in place to protect the industry should a motor insurer be liquidated. When can we expect the legislation to come before the House?
