Written Answers - Insurance Policies.

  66. Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Finance if credit card usage is covered by insurers at all times regardless of the age of the user. [2750/06]

  Mr. Cowen: The protection or cover afforded to a consumer by an insurance policy will be determined by the terms and conditions of that policy and I would strongly encourage every consumer to read the terms and conditions of all insurance policies. The terms and conditions of a particular insurance policy in respect of credit card usage will determine [1134] whether or not the age of the cardholder is relevant to the cover provided.
