267. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence the expenses incurred by his Department relating to insurance of all types in each of the past five years; the cost of each insurance policy held by his Department over the same time period per annum; if he will provide the same data for all bodies under the aegis of his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Apart from Civil Defence, all other elements of the Defence Organisation are covered under State indemnity through the State Claims Agency and therefore do not require commercial insurance. Civil Defence is unique in that it operates as a partnership between the Department of Defence and local authorities. Local Authorities are not covered under the State indemnity arrangements with the State Claims Agency. Therefore, the Department of Defence has insurance policies in place to provide cover for Civil Defence.
The payments made for insurance for Civil Defence since 2012 are outlined in the table. The insurance runs from 1 July to 30 June each year and covers Motor, Public Liability, Employers Liability, Marine Hull, Property Damage and Travel. Employment Practices Liability, Directors and Officers Liability and Computer policies were discontinued following the dissolution of the Civil Defence Board at the end of 2012.
