Personal Injuries Assessment Board Bill 2003: Second Stage.

 

Unless this is addressed, the PIAB will be fundamentally flawed from the outset and will be perceived as one-sided and unfair. In the absence of permitting representation, I assure the Tánaiste that Members of the Oireachtas will be assuming a new clerical role in advising claimants filling in forms for the PIAB. We have enough to be doing without becoming barrack room lawyers or insurance claims handlers, which is a prospect.
