In administering legislation, MAIC issues guidelines to explain when and how we will exercise specific powers, describing principles underlying our approach, and giving practical guidance to assist in providing best practice models for industry stakeholders. The guidelines apply to the management of claims from the date of issue, and are updated as required, whether the claim was made before or after that date. The guidelines should be read in conjunction with the appropriate governing legislation.
