§220. Investigation of violations

1.  Discretionary investigations.  In addition to examinations and investigations expressly authorized, the superintendent may conduct investigations of insurance matters as the superintendent considers proper upon reasonable cause to determine whether any person has violated any provision of this Title or to secure information useful in the lawful administration of any such provision. The cost of these investigations must be borne by the State.  

[PL 1991, c. 26 (NEW).]

2.  Response to inquiries.  All insurers and other persons required to be licensed pursuant to this Title and Title 24 shall respond to all lawful inquiries of the superintendent within 10 business days of receipt of the inquiry and to all follow-up inquiries of the superintendent within 5 business days of receipt. If a substantive response cannot in good faith be provided within the required time, the person required to respond shall so advise the superintendent and provide the reason for the inability to respond. The superintendent may adopt routine technical rules as defined in Title 5, chapter 375, subchapter 2‑A to implement the requirements of this subsection.  

[PL 2023, c. 59, §1 (AMD).]
