97. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the reason the decision was taken to index link periodic payments in catastrophic injury cases to the consumer price index, CPI, in the Civil Liability (Amendment) Bill 2017, in view of the fact that the report of the working group on medical negligence in 2010 recommended the use of a specialised index, linked to care costs, which are inadequately captured by the CPI; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
