Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 1 June 2017
232. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation the expenses incurred by her Department relating to insurance of all types in each of the past five years; the cost of each insurance policy held by her Department over the same time period per annum; if she will provide the same data for all bodies under the aegis of her Department; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [26289/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraState indemnity for personal injury and third party property damage is set out in the National Treasury Management Agency (Amendment) Act, 2000 where the management of personal injury underlying risks and third party property damage claims against certain State authorities is delegated to the National Treasury Management Agency. When performing these functions, the Agency is known as the State Claims Agency (SCA).
The SCA’s remit covers personal injury and third party property damage claims against the State itself, Ministers of the Government and the delegated State Agencies, as applicable.
This function is discharged in relation to bodies delegated to the SCA under National Treasury Management Agency (Amendment) Act, 2000 and subsequent legal orders, but not to all State-funded or associated enterprises.
Accordingly, my Department does not incur any costs in relation to taking out any insurance policies.
In relation to expenses, these do not arise save where the SCA recoups costs of claims involving my Department. In the time available to my Department it has not been possible to compile the data requested covering the last 5 years but I will ensure that the relevant information is compiled for the Deputy and communicated to him shortly.
Finally, in relation to outstanding claims against my Department or bodies under its aegis, I have asked the relevant Agencies to respond to me directly and I will communicate the relevant details to the Deputy in early course.
The following deferred reply was received under Standing Order 42A
In my response to Parliamentary Question No. 232, Reference No. 26289/17 answered on 1 June 2017, I indicated that I would arrange for the State Agencies under the remit of my Department to supply information requested.
The information as provided to me is now provided herewith, in respect of the State agencies under my Department’s remit.
The agencies concerned are as follows:
- Enterprise Ireland,
- NSAI,
- CCPC,
- PIAB,
- IAASA,
- IDA,
- SFI,
- Health and Safety Authority.
