Privilege Working Group


This working group was established to understand, research and recommend to CCIR an approach to address concerns regarding the confidentiality of information gathered by insurance companies for internal audits and self-assessment purposes.

Fall 2008: The Privilege Working Group published the Privilege Model and completed its final report. Implementation of the model requires legislative changes in most jurisdictions which is a decision that rests solely with each jurisdiction’s government. The CCIR thanked the Privilege Working Group for a job well done, noted that they have fulfilled their mandate admirably and agreed to disband the committee.
