Mr. Worthington

Miss Melanie Johnson

I have been asked to reply.

This is a matter for the Policyholders Protection Board. I understand that it is working with the provisional liquidators and Chester Street Insurance Holdings, which is currently assessing the information available about existing and potential claims.
