Its main purpose was to consider 2 proposals: first the establishment of an Employers’ Liability Tracing Office (ELTO) to manage an electronic database of employers’ liability insurance policies; secondly, the establishment of an Employers’ Liability Insurance Bureau (ELIB) to provide a fund of last resort enabling those unable to trace an Employers’ Liability (EL) insurance policy to claim compensation.
This consultation is now closed. It ran from 10 February 2010 to 5 May 2010.
