John Paul Phelan (Fine Gael)

I have a new car and I pay an insurance premium of €3,200. I have been informed that it will decrease when I am 25, which is not too far away. I hope it will decrease, but it is a crazy amount. It is not fair or equitable that older people, by virtue of the fact that they are older, pay less. I have never had a claim and I have had a full licence for six years. The system is not justifiable. I support the Independent Senators who brought this matter before the House. It is an important issue.
