    (1)     An occupational association may establish a committee for monitoring and analysing claims made against its members for occupational liability or 2 or more occupational associations may establish a common committee for that purpose.

    (2)     It is not necessary for all the committee members to be members of the occupational association or associations concerned (for example, members may include representatives of insurers).

    (3)     An occupational association may, through such a committee or otherwise, issue practice advice to its members with a view to minimising claims for occupational liability.

    (4)     A committee may request an insurer to give it any information or a copy of any document that the committee considers will assist it in carrying out its function.
