It also covers the legal costs of investigating and defending claims. Common claims arise from breaches of Resource Management Act, Health & Safety in Employment Act, Building Act, Commerce Act, Fair Trading Act and so on.
Statutory Liability insurance covers legal defence costs, as well as any reparation and/or (excluding Health & Safety Act breaches) fines you become liable to pay.
