State Indemnity Confirmation Statements
Last updated: Thu, Apr 7th, 2022
Occasionally Community and Comprehensive Schools may be required to provide confirmation of ‘insurance cover’. A State indemnity confirmation statement is issued as proof of State indemnity in lieu of an insurance policy. Please see a copy of the State indemnity confirmation statement below.
The State indemnity confirmation statement shall not be subject to change or renewal unless there is a change in legislation. In that respect, it is worth noting, that the State Indemnity Confirmation Statement does not have or require a policy number or stipulate a period of cover. The State Indemnity Confirmation Statement provided is effective from the date indicated. The limit of indemnity is unlimited in amount (in relation to personal injury and third party property damage liabilities, arising from the negligence of the school, its servants and/or agents).
When an insured enters into an agreement with a third party they often request confirmation that the insured’s policy extends to cover this agreement, referred to as indemnity to principals in insurance. Again as State Indemnity is enshrined in legislation there is no requirement to name indemnified parties. When such an indemnity is requested a third party is referred to this State Indemnity Confirmation Statement, where it specifically states that the indemnity applies in all cases where Community and Comprehensive Schools, their servants or agents are negligent (in relation to personal injury and third party property damage liabilities).
