Insurance (Agents and Brokers) Act 1984 No. 75 of 1984 - SECT 15

15. Where a contract of insurance is entered into, or a claim under a contract
of insurance is dealt with or settled, by an insurance intermediary who acted
under a binder in relation to the contract or claim, the intermediary shall,
with respect to the contract or claim, and with respect to all matters
relating to the contract or claim, be deemed to be the agent of the insurer
and not of the insured for all purposes, including the operation of section
11, and, if the insured in fact relied in good faith on the conduct of the
insurance intermediary, shall be so deemed notwithstanding that the
intermediary did not act within the scope of his authority under the binder.
