Insurance Industry. (31 Mar 2010)

Jan O'Sullivan: I am very concerned for the policy holders and employees. Why is it only now that the Financial Regulator has intervened? Any insurer would have to answer the question of whether it has the appropriate solvency cushion and is not compromised by guarantees to other subsidiaries.

Order of Business (1 Apr 2010)

Jan O'Sullivan: The nurses and midwives Bill is actually on the pink list, which means it should be published before the next session.

Order of Business (20 Apr 2010)

Jan O'Sullivan: I refer to one of the matters raised by Deputy Ó Caoláin, the nurses and midwives Bill.
