The Insurance Council of New Zealand is pleased private insurers have agreed to participate in the Greater Christchurch Claims Resolution Service.

The GCCRS evolved from the Residential Advisory Service, which private insurers supported from the outset several years ago. The establishment of the GCCRS late last year, initially involving only state-owned insurers EQC and Southern Response, is helping to resolve complex claims.

We welcome private insurers using the full range of GCCRS services where insurers and claimants agree to do so.
