Ceist:

214 Mr. B. Smith asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the progress to date in relation to the implementation of the recommendations of the Motor Insurance Advisory Board; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [6731/03]

The ministerial committee established to oversee implementation of insurance reform, which I chair, also includes the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform, the Minister for Transport and the chairperson of the MIAB.

To date, the ministerial committee has met twice. The meetings were attended by the Ministers as stated above and senior officials from the respective Departments. It has been agreed that the committee will meet monthly. As a follow-up to the meetings, four other bilateral meetings have taken place involving the various Departments and the Irish Insurance Federation. These meetings were attended by senior officials.

Progress has been made on the majority of the MIAB recommendations and to date ten have been implemented.
