British Insurance Association (Special Fund)

HC Deb 28 June 1971 vol 820 cc17-8W

Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will now make further representations to the British Insurance Association arising out of its failure speedily to set up its special fund in respect of passenger claims involving policy holders in the Vehicle and General Insurance Group.

Mr. John Davies

There are certain legal problems to be overcome in setting up the special fund to deal with passenger claims. I understand that the B.I.A. is well on the way to overcoming these.
