INSURANCE

These Regulations modify for certain insurance companies the information required to accompany an application for authorisation under section 3 of the Insurance Companies Act 1982. Insurance companies which carry on legal expenses insurance business (class 17) as an ancillary to another class of general business without a separate authorisationfor class 17th May (before 1st July 1990) apply for authorisation for class 17 (and reauthorisation for the classes of business for which they are presently authorised) and are permitted to supply the information specified in the Schedule to these Regulations, in place of that specified in Schedule 5 to the Insurance Companies Regulations 1981. Such separate authorisation is necessary by virtue of the amendment to the Insurance Companies Act 1982 made by the Insurance Companies (Legal Expenses Insurance) Regulations 1990 (S.I. 1990/1159).
