Chapter 23c: Findings, declarations relative to compliance review of insurance carriers
Section: 17:23c-11: Continuing privilege of disclosed information
11. a. If an insurance carrier timely discloses information it obtained from a voluntary compliance review to the department or to another appropriate regulatory agency, that information and the voluntary compliance review which resulted in the information shall remain subject to sections 3 and 4 of this act, except that the agency receiving the information may use it with respect to an enforcement action.
b. The regulatory agency, in deciding on the appropriate penalty or sanction, if any, for a violation shall consider the timely disclosure as a mitigating factor if the violation is disclosed and the insurance carrier responsible for the violation demonstrates, and the regulator determines, that the violation is not the result of knowing, purposeful, reckless or criminally negligent conduct, that reasonable corrective action has been or is being taken to rectify and eliminate any detected violation and that the insurance carrier has made or is making a good-faith effort to prevent similar violations.
