25. Insurance contracts other than life insurance contracts

No contract of insurance (other than a contract of life insurance) shall be
avoided by reason only of any incorrect statement made by the proponent in any

into revived or renewed by the insurer unless the statement so made was
fraudulently untrue or material in relation to the risk of the insurer under
the contract.
