We want far more companies to come into the market. We need the likes of OUTsurance, or whoever else, to engage specifically on public liability insurance. We know the issues that exist and the other added costs at the moment. It is an issue that affects community events, event tourism, sporting and community organisations. We all know the ridiculous premiums that have been charged for community centres. We are talking about sustainability across the board.
I will come back to my previous question. If premiums continue to rise while whatever benefits are pocketed by the insurance companies, it is not good enough.
I accept what the Minister cannot do but it is about what he can do and what he intends to do to ensure we see something-----
