answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/12/2014 answer text <p>The My Licence service provides the insurance industry with validated driver data from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) to help them calculate motor insurance premiums. This service was developed alongside the DVLA’s award-winning View Driving Licence service, which allows individual drivers to access their own record, and the development costs are combined. These services were developed together on a new strategic enquiry platform built on the same infrastructure. This allows the DVLA to develop future enquiry services on the same platform.</p><p> </p><p>The end of year forecast for these services is £9.1m. This is a saving of £15m on the original forecast of £24.1m. The estimated annual cost for support and maintenance is £2m, excluding VAT.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Devizes answering member printed Claire Perry question first answered 15/12/2014 12:08:13 answering member 3974 label Biography information for Claire Perry

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/11/2014 answer text <p>The Competition and Markets Authority became the UK’s lead competition and consumer body in April 2014, combining the Competition Commission (CC) with many of the functions of the Office of Fair Trading (OFT). It does not keep records of its expenditure by market. However, based on approximate time allocations and all-inclusive staff costs, and taking into account some external costs such as the cost of commissioning surveys, the total cost of the CC/CMA market inquiry into private motor insurance (which ran from 28 September 2012 to 24 September 2014) was approximately £2million. On the assumption that this cost was spread evenly over time, this would have represented approximately 4% of the CC’s costs in 2013/14.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency East Dunbartonshire answering member printed Jo Swinson question first answered 25/11/2014 13:26:38 answering member 1513 label Biography information for Jo Swinson

Early in its investigation, the CMA considered the Northern Ireland motor insurance market and did not find signs of a failure of competition specific to that market.</p><p>The CMA noted that a number of recent initiatives in Northern Ireland could have an effect on premiums, including a new arbitration procedure for smaller claims and a graduated driving licence aimed at reducing the riskiness of young drivers.</p><p>Government measures have already removed a number of unnecessary costs from the system in England and Wales, and we are implementing further reforms to tackle exaggerated whiplash claims, inducement advertising by solicitors and fraudulent insurance claims. The Government fully expects the insurance industry to continue to meet their commitment to pass on the savings from Government reforms to their customers through lower premiums.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p> answering member constituency Chipping Barnet answering member printed Mrs Theresa Villiers question first answered 26/09/2014 11:51:33 answering member 1500 label Biography information for Theresa Villiers
