Interim report
This March 2015 interim report sets out the areas that the Insurance Fraud Taskforce will explore in more depth, and also makes an initial recommendation. The report asked interested parties to submit answers to the ‘questions for consideration’ by 13 May 2015 and the final report has now been published.

The Taskforce established a Personal Injury Working Group to look at issues relating specifically to personal injury claims. The Working Group is made up of representatives from the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL), the Motor Accident Solicitors Society (MASS), National Accident Helpline, BLM Law, Covéa Insurance and Aviva Insurance. It reported to the Taskforce with its Personal Injury Work Group recommendations (PDF, 793KB, 25 pages) in July 2015.
Final report
This final report represents the culmination of the taskforce’s year-long review into insurance fraud.
In it, the taskforce explored relevant issues including the scale and impact, regulators and legal frameworks and what has already been done to tackle fraud, before making a range of targeted recommendations.
The recommendations aim to tackle fraudulent activity ranging from organised or premeditated crime to opportunistic fraud, with the overall objective of ultimately reducing costs for consumers.
