As the Deputy is aware, the Programme for Government- Securing Ireland’s Future commits to a comprehensive series of actions aimed at improving affordability, availability, and transparency across the insurance sector. One of the first steps to deliver on these commitments is the new Action Plan for Insurance Reform, which was published on 24 July.

As part of the Plan’s development, my Department undertook a wide-ranging public consultation which received over seventy detailed submissions from a broad spectrum of stakeholders. These included individual consumers, businesses, public bodies, industry bodies, political parties, and representative associations.

These submissions informed the new Action Plan, helped shape the six thematic priorities, and will continue to guide implementation - ensuring that reform is inclusive, evidence-based, and impactful.

The political parties that made submissions to the public consultation are listed below:

  • Green Party
  • Labour Party
  • Fine Gael
  • Social Democrats
