AI Summary

This bill amends Louisiana's insurance law regarding homeowners' insurance policies. The key provisions are: 1. Insurers cannot cancel or fail to renew a homeowner's policy that has been in effect for more than 3 years, unless it is due to nonpayment of premium, fraud, a material change in the risk, 2 or more claims in 5 years, or if continuing the policy would endanger the insurer's solvency. This does not apply to insurers withdrawing from the market or modifying deductibles. 2. For policies in place for at least 3 years as of August 1, 2024, insurers can file a plan with the insurance commissioner to non-renew up to 5% of their customers' policies per year, and can request permission to non-renew more than 5% in a year. 3. Insurers' plans and requests for additional non-renewals are considered proprietary/trade secret information. 4. The insurance commissioner is directed to promulgate rules for the non-renewal plan and request process. 5. Certain existing provisions regarding filings of rating plans and rate reductions are repealed.
