andMr. McQuillan asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he has completed his consideration of the individual case of industrial assurance referred to by him on 24th May, 1961; and, if so, what action he proposes to take in the matter.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Industrial Assurance.

I have not yet completed my consideration of this matter.
Would the Minister say whether the case mentioned by him in the House last week is the one a report of which appeared in the daily papers within the past fortnight?
That case did raise the question which is at present under investigation by the Minister.
I asked the Minister what is the case to which he has referred in his reply. Is this the High Court case in connection with the New Ireland Assurance Company, a report of which appeared in the daily papers within the past fortnight? Is that the case the Minister is examining?
As far as I know, that was the only case of its kind so it must be the case concerned.
I take it, therefore, it is the case concerned?
As far as I know, it is the only case of its kind which has been successfully brought through the courts, so it must be the case.
