On insurance fraud which accounts for 3% of the total, is it mostly concerned with motor insurance or does public liability insurance also form a part of it? We hear of cases involving diligent business owners who are facing claims where someone claims to have slipped. Video footage then appears which shows one friend hitting another in a fight and that was how a tooth was knocked out, for example, and all of a sudden the people involved in the claim walk away. Should not all such cases be investigated?
