MOTOR CONFERENCE

(as at 8th July 2003)

Motor Conference is the body that represents members of ABI transacting motor insurance business and the motor syndicates of Lloyd’s Motor Underwriters Association (LMUA). Motor Conference is representative of some 98% of the motor insurance business transacted in the UK. Many of ABI’s activities – for example, representations to Government – are carried out under the auspices of Motor Conference.

A number of undertakings have been given on behalf of all members of Motor Conference to various bodies e.g. Government Departments, local authorities and voluntary organisations. The undertakings allow an individual with motor insurance which includes use for personal business to use his or her own vehicle for the business of their employer. They also provide that the receipt of a mileage allowance will not constitute use for "hire or reward". This is to ensure that individuals in receipt of such an allowance continue to be covered under their insurance policy, notwithstanding any general exclusion of hire and reward use.

Please note that there may be a small number of insurance policies issued by certain insurers that are covered by the undertakings. To check whether any individual insurer not currently listed is a subscriber, contact motor@abi.org.uk.
