69O-125.003: Unfair Discrimination Because of Travel Plans
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on December 17, 2009, the Office of Insurance Regulation has issued an order.
A petition for a variance was filed on November 9, 2009, by Monumental Life Insurance Company for an extension of the variance granted by order on February 15, 2008. The petition was published in the F.A.W. on December 4, 2009, Vol. 35, No. 48. The variance is from Rule 69O-125.003, F.A.C., which makes it unlawful to discriminate against travelers to other countries in the issuance of life insurance. The petition asks for an extension of a variance that had been granted for travel to Afghanistan and Iraq. An earlier order granted such a variance for a period of two years. Because the conditions in these two countries have not changed in the intervening two years, as it relates to travel to them, and because applicable requirements in Section 120.542, F.S., have been met, this new order extends the original order for two additional years.
