My Department is not required to hold insurances against the risk of any loss, under headings such as public liability, buildings cover, employer liability and so on, as it is covered by state indemnity, whereby the Exchequer carries its own insurance.

The information regarding the agencies under the aegis of my Department is an operational matter for each agency. I will request the relevant bodies to reply directly to the Deputy with the information requested in respect of their organisation.
