Change in Leisureinsure Policy Wording

On Thursday we were told about a change to Leisureinsure's Policy wording. We have looked into this and talked with Leisureinsure and they have agreed that we can let you all know. The change applies to all renewed policies and new policies from 1st March 2013

The exact wording is as follows and is in the Annual Policy Wording

"D8. INFLATABLE AND LEISURE PLAY CLAUSE Warranties:

It is a condition precedent to liability hereunder that:

i. All equipment is in good condition and is maintained and operated in accordance with a) Manufacturers
recommendations and B) The Health & Safety Executive's recommended Public Best Practice document An Operators Guide to BS EN 14960:2006 which can be viewed by visitingwww.leisureinsure.co.uk/literature/EN14960EUInflatableRegulations.pdf"

If you follow the link it takes you to the draft version of EN 14960. You will all be aware that the Standard covers specifics in respect of maintenance, annual testing and supervision and therefore not to invalidate your insurance you need to comply fully to BS EN 14960.

NAIH/TIPE welcome this initiative by Leisureinsure as it will assist still further in the reduction of risk to users. Whilst checking out their policy wording we noted that any of your customers taking out day insurance will be required to produce a copy of your hire agreement.
