If a policy is submitted and refers to the liability cover under another name (as mentioned in the table above, under “REQUIRES APPROVAL”), we will need to request from the company an excerpt of the policy which explains what the insurance policy covers where it is not called “public liability”.

 

If the document is not one of the “ACCEPTED” forms of Public Liability types, it must be referred to NCIG for approval.

 

All accepted Public Liability policies must be a minimum of 20 million dollars Australian, or equivalent in US Dollars or Euro, for any one occurrence.

If the amount shown on the document is not listed as an Australian Dollar amount (e.g. US or EURO), use a currency converter to check the amount - if the conversion at the verification processing time meets the required Australian Dollar amount the document can be approved.  In the Comment Field please enter the confirmation that the currency converter process has been completed e.g. ‘Currency Converted and meets the AUD minimum amount required’.

Example of unacceptable insurances:

 

Product Liability -  $20,000,000

Public Liability Policies under $20,000,000

A Policy where the minimum insured amount is split amongst the different types of cover

E.g. Products Liability $10,000,000 and Public Liability $10,000,000 = $20,000,000.
