Introduced  by  Sen.  SEWARD -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
  printed to be committed to the Committee on Insurance

AN ACT to amend the insurance  law,  in  relation  to  establishing  the
  interstate  insurance  product  regulation compact to regulate certain
  insurance products and providing for the  repeal  of  such  provisions
  upon expiration thereof

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. An interstate  compact  is
an  agreement  between states that permits states to cooperate on multi-
state or national issues while retaining state control. There  are  over
two  hundred  interstate compacts currently in existence and every state
belongs to at least fourteen such  compacts.  The  interstate  insurance
product regulation compact is designed to streamline state product regu-
lation systems to allow insurers to more quickly market certain types of
insurance  products nationally and to reduce the number of variations of
the same product that a company must produce to  meet  specific  product
standards.  The  compact  would  cover individual and group products for
life insurance, annuities, disability income and long-term  care  insur-
ance.  The  state of New York seeks to join with other states and estab-
lish the interstate insurance product regulation compact  and  become  a
member of the interstate insurance product regulation commission.
  S  2.  The insurance law is amended by adding a new article 88 to read
as follows:

                               ARTICLE 88
             INTERSTATE INSURANCE PRODUCT REGULATION COMPACT

SECTION 8801. SHORT TITLE.
        8802. PURPOSE.
        8803. DEFINITIONS.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                           LBD01801-01-3
