- A. After considering the application and all supportive data, the Commission shall either grant approval or advise the trustees of the governmental self-insurers' group of the requirements to be met before approval is granted. The group shall be given 30 days from the receipt of the notice in which to comply with the requirements. The self-insured authority may not become effective until there is proof that all requirements for self-insured approval have been met.
- B. The group may, at the discretion of the Commission, be granted additional time to meet the requirements for the self-insured program. A request for an extension of time shall be made in writing by the group within the 30-day compliance period. If the Commission does not receive proof that all requirements for the self-insured program have been met within the time prescribed, the application shall be considered withdrawn.
- C. Upon meeting the requirements, the group shall receive a formal certificate approving its status as a self-insurer. The privilege shall be extended until denied.
