Legislative History

(P.A. 86-98, S. 4, 6; P.A. 93-273, S. 1.) History: Sec. 38-64b transferred to Sec. 38a-44 in 1991; P.A. 93-273 required notification of commissioner 60 days before the initial notice of cancellation or nonrenewal is delivered or mailed to the insureds, rather than 60 days before effective date of action to discontinue offerings of insurance lines or sublines, and added provision specifically excluding life insurance policies or annuity contracts from section provisions.
