143 Mr. Ring asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the areas the Government levy on insurance premiums is spent. [13393/02]
The insurance compensation fund levy was introduced by the Government on 1 January 1984, following the collapse of PMPA in 1983. The levy ceased to apply from 1 January 1993 as it was felt that sufficient funds had been collected to enable the successful completion of the administration of Primor plc – formerly known as PMPA Insurance plc.
