Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department and the National Economic and Social Development Office (NESDO) operate under State indemnity, a self-insurance model whereby the State bears the financial risk associated with the cost of claims. The management of such claims is delegated to the State Claims Agency.
NESDO came under the ambit of the State Claims Agency in 2014. Prior to this NESDO was required to hold separate insurance cover. Details of expenditure on insurance by NESDO is set out in the table. In recent years expenditure on insurance cover has been for business travel insurance only.
