There are no proposals to include a representative from HomeBond on the Pyrite Resolution Board. HomeBond is a private company and its operation is a matter for its management and Bo a rd of Directors. M y Department does not have any specific details in relation to its activities or its insurance loss adjusting experience. However, my Department is aware that up until August , 2011 HomeBond was involved in pyrite remediation work and over the years since its inception it has built up significant experience dealing with claims for structural damage under the terms of its warranty scheme.
