Quotes attributable to ICA CEO Andrew Hall:

The Insurance Council and its members had presence across many impacted communities immediately following the Mid North Coast and Hunter floods, including at an Insurance Hub in Taree which was open for two weeks after the event.

However, as part of our ongoing commitment to regions impacted by extreme weather events and to support impacted policyholders get back on their feet, it's important for insurers to revisit affected regions to work through any questions, issues or concerns customers may have.

We encourage anyone with queries for their insurer to make a booking.
