Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


                     STATEMENT  OF  PURPOSE
                            RS 13496
This bill amends a provision of the code that requires that
insurers file reports regarding material acquisitions with the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC).  This
requirement is being deleted because the NAIC no longer requires or
wants to receive these reports.






                         FISCAL  IMPACT
There will be no fiscal impact.
