Willie Penrose
Question:68 Mr. Penrose asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment if his attention has been drawn to the reduction in commission payments to insurance intermediaries selling life insurance effected in January 1994; the effect, if any, this has had on the income of over 7,000 insurance intermediaries; if the consumer benefited from such reductions or if insurance companies retained the benefit; the increase, if any, in the cost of the annual premium to consumers in respect of life insurance policies from January 1994, to date; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
