The UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme has increased deposit insurance from £75,000 to £85,000 effective 30 January 2017 due to the drop in the value of sterling.

That means Irish deposits with Nationwide UK (Ireland), Investec and Leeds Building Society (Ireland) will soon be protected up to the euro equivalent of £85,000.
