I have a question about something that came up at other hearings, which was raised by Mr. Dempsey the last time we were here and on which we challenged the federation. Mr. Dempsey said that in a case in which a person gets a letter in the post saying his insurance is due for renewal, and that person seeks other quotes but is refused insurance by those other firms, if he returns to the firm offering insurance and does not declare he has been refused insurance by other firms, he is not covered. Is that correct?
