Swann Calls on Government for Fair Insurance Deal for NI Drivers

Robin Swann MP has asked Ministers for assurances that the UK Government’s Car Insurance Task Force will provide a fair deal for Northern Ireland drivers.

South Antrim MP Robin Swann has tabled written and oral questions to the Secretary of State for Transport following the government’s announcement of a new Car Insurance Taskforce which will "[root] out factors that increase costs for the car insurance industry" to ensure drivers have a fair deal on their car insurance premiums.

Mr Swann said: “Drivers in Northern Ireland face some of the highest car insurance costs in the United Kingdom. Car insurance is a legal requirement and should be affordable and accessible for every driver. For that reason, I have pressed the government for assurances that Northern Ireland’s drivers will also benefit from this Task Force.”
