Vol. 197 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Television Insurance Premiums.

43.

Mr. Ryan

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if, having regard to the very big increases in television insurance premiums being demanded by insurance companies, he will have a public enquiry made into the matter, as many tenants, including tenants of local authorities, are prevented from having television sets and masts unless they can prove to their landlords that they have appropriate insurance cover.

I have no power to control these rates. The insurance rate for a particular class of risk is determined by underwriting experience.
