- A. If after a hearing thereon the Insurance Commissioner finds that a particular insurance coverage or type, class, or kind of coverage is not readily procurable from authorized insurers, he may by order declare such coverage or coverages to be recognized surplus lines until the Insurance Commissioner's further order. The broker's affidavit provided for in Section 1107 of this article shall not be required as to coverages while so recognized. Before holding any such hearing the Commissioner shall give notice to admitted insurers authorized to write such lines of insurance, to rating organizations licensed to make rates for such lines of insurance and to other interested persons in the manner provided by Article 3 of this Code.
- B. Any such order shall be subject to modification, and the Insurance Commissioner shall so modify as to any coverage found by him to be no longer entitled to such recognition after a hearing held upon his own initiative or upon request of any insurance agent, surplus line broker, broker, insurer, rating or advisory organization, or other person.
