Insurance Industry
Dail Éireann — 2025-07-15
============================================================

Pearse Doherty (SF), Donegal

I have raised this issue with the Minister time and time again and I will continue raising it because people are, to use that phrase again, being ripped off. There is no doubt about it. It is not good enough that the Government is doing nothing about it. Insurance companies are boasting profit margins far and above the European average, far and above what they said they would target if they got the reforms that were passed through these Houses. I see a Government that is impotent in the face of this here and people are being squeezed, whether they are motorists, businesses or sports organisations.
