Existing law, the Insurance Rate Reduction and Reform Act (enacted by Proposition 103, as approved by the voters at the November 8, 1988, statewide general election) , prohibits a rate from being approved or remaining in effect which is excessive, inadequate, unfairly discriminatory, or otherwise in violation of the applicable provisions of law. Under existing law, an insurer that wishes to change a rate is required to file a complete rate application with the Insurance Commissioner, for which there may be a hearing as prescribed. Existing law authorizes any person to initiate or intervene in any proceeding permitted or established pursuant to these provisions, to challenge actions of the commissioner, and to enforce provisions of the act. This bill would require the Department of Insurance to post on its Internet Web site, during the period of eligibility, all requests for a finding of eligibility to seek compensation and all findings of eligibility, as defined. The bill would also remove language declared unconstitutional by the courts and would declare that this change is declaratory of existing law.
