The summaries are intended to provide a general overview, and should not be relied upon as a substitute for the actual bill language.
2008
The documents available on this section of our Website include legislative summaries of insurance-related bills that were signed into law in 2008. Although most of these bills amend the New York Insurance Law, summaries are also included of insurance-related bills that amend chapters other than Insurance Law. The summaries are intended to provide a general overview, and should not be relied upon as a substitute for the actual bill language.
In addition, summaries are included of some insurance-related bills that were introduced, but not passed, in 2008. Summaries are also included of insurance-related bills that passed the Legislature but were vetoed by the Governor. For bills that were vetoed, the Governor's veto message is included with each summary.
