Pearse Doherty: What is Mr. Hassett's view of the fact that insurance companies are pricing young motorists off the road, which unfortunately in some cases is leading some of them to drive without insurance, which is wrong? A case in point is a 17 year old who contacted me who is looking for third-party fire and theft cover for his own car. He is a provisional licence holder, so he would have to be...

Pearse Doherty: On Insurance Ireland’s aims and objectives to help the industry to support its consumers, what about the practice of dual pricing? Take the practice of an insurance company operating in Ireland, a member of Insurance Ireland, quoting an existing consumer €4,000 for a renewal. However, when I enter my details into the company’s website, as a first-time customer, I get a...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Dual Pricing for Insurance: Discussion (Resumed) (21 Nov 2019)
Pearse Doherty: The reason I raised this is because Mr. Hassett just said that the issue of artificial intelligence and machine learning is not something Insurance Ireland has discussed. Not only has it discussed this issue, its partner, Accenture, is involved in breakfast briefings with Insurance Ireland on this. One does not have to go far to find this out. It is in Insurance Ireland's 2017 annual...

Pearse Doherty: That is fine. However, I take issue with Mr. Hassett’s earlier comment suggesting this was never discussed. We can give him the transcripts on this. Mr. Hassett mentioned the EIOPA analysis done with 222 insurance companies. Did any insurance companies in Ireland participate in that?
