Speaking in the Dail last night on a Sinn Féin Bill to improve transparency in the insurance sector Sinn Féin TD for Laois-Offaly Brian Stanley said:
“I welcome the opportunity to speak on this Bill. Insurance companies have ripped off the public for too long. The insurance sector made profits of €142 million last year, yet premium prices kept increasing. This Sinn Féin legislation would force insurance companies to pass on savings to their customers and reduce premium prices as a result of new personal injury guidelines.
