Govt has 'sidelined' insurance reforms, alliance says

The organisation said the Tánaiste had pledged that the general scheme of a bill on the issue would be brought forward by September of last year, but it never materialised.

"As well as the missed opportunity on duty of care, the Government has long-fingered the promised reform of PIAB onto the "All other Legislation" list, which means further delays on legislation originally promised for July 2021," said Peter Boland, director of the alliance. Businesses say that occupiers of properties are now regularly assumed to have an absolute duty of care when it comes to visitors to their premises, such as customers and clients."It is clear that the Tánaiste and the Minister for Justice have dropped the ball on insurance reform, missing deadline after deadline under their own Action Plan for Insurance Reform," said Sinn Féin finance spokesman, Pearse Doherty.
