The Motor Insurance Advisory Board issued its final report yesterday. Some of the functions of that authority will be transferred to the Irish Financial Services Regulatory Authority. It would be timely and appropriate for us to debate the whole industry, particularly the findings of the Motor Insurance Advisory Board and where we go from here. Ms Dorothea Dowling gave a very good interview on RTE's "Five Seven Live" radio programme yesterday evening in which she expressed some reservations about the way forward.
