Warren Entsch is pushing to sideline the Insurance Council of Australia who he has described as "as useless as a pocket on a singlet". He feels they have done nothing to help the insurance crisis and have been in denial about market failure or even that N. Qld has a problem. This is even though Campbell Newman has mentioned market failure and the Qld Commerce has used the terms "insurance rorting" and "insurance gouging". I could not agree more as I believe those pushing for insurance reforms including myself have been described as "part of the lunatic fringe" - I consider this a compliment. Warren is suggesting Australia allow overseas insurance companies access to the Australian market, something they do not presently have. This should increase competition in the market. Also..... he feels if a company operating in Australia is offering a product, then that product should be offered to the whole of Australia or not at all - stop the cherry picking!! We are getting somewhere.
