Suncorp New Zealand today welcomed the announcement by the Government to appoint an independent Ministerial advisor to help speed up the remaining Canterbury earthquake claims.

Jimmy Higgins, Executive General Manager of Claims at Suncorp New Zealand, which includes Vero and AA Insurance (a joint venture with the New Zealand Automobile Association), said he supported any moves to speed up the process for customers who are still waiting for their claims to be resolved.
