Personal Injuries Assessment Board Bill 2003: Second Stage.
It is a major step for the Minister to establish another semi-State organisation. More than 100 people will be employed in suites of offices and it will have costs and overheads. In that regard the board should be located outside Dublin. If it is a paper-fed organisation without the need to hold interviews, there is no need to travel long distances and cases can be made through the Internet and paper applications. Most of us would be happy to have such a board in our constituencies.
