The cost of insurance, in particular that of public liability, is crippling business the length and breadth of the country. One of the key recommendations of Mr. Justice Kearns' report requires the passage of the Judicial Council Bill 2017 but it has yet to be brought into the Seanad. The reason it has not been brought to the Seanad is due to the time that has been spent on the Judicial Appointments Commission Bill 2017. Will the Government prioritise the former Bill to help long-suffering businesses, as opposed to helping the long-suffering Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Ross, who has a personal crusade in respect of the latter Bill?
