Unclaimed Life Assurance Policies Bill 2002: Second Stage.

 

I welcome the Bill, although I have reservations about some aspects of it. As Senator Quinn said, I hope that every effort will be made to notify policyholders and their next of kin of the details of unclaimed policies. I hope the Bill will have the effect of bringing forward many holders of these policies, who do not realise they have them, or their next of kin. The Bill will generate much publicity in relation to bringing that to light. I hope that the Minister of State will respond to my point concerning the next of kin of such policyholders.
