market activities. Joint Underwriting, Joint Reinsurance Pool and Residual Market Activities. A. Notwithstanding paragraph 3 of subsection A of Section 992 of this title, insurers participating in joint underwriting, joint reinsurance pools or residual market mechanisms may in connection with such activity act in cooperation with each other in the making of rates, rating systems, policy forms, underwriting rules, surveys, inspections and investigations, the furnishing of loss and expense statistics or other information, or carrying on research. Joint underwriting, joint reinsurance pools and residual market mechanisms shall not be deemed an advisory organization. B. Except to the extent modified by this section, joint underwriting, joint reinsurance pool and residual market mechanism activities are subject to the other provisions of the Property and Casualty Competitive Loss Cost Rating Act. C. If, after a hearing, the Commissioner finds that any activity or practice of an insurer participating in joint underwriting or a pool is unfair, is unreasonable, will tend to lessen competition in any market or is otherwise inconsistent with the provisions or purposes of the Property and Casualty Competitive Loss Cost Rating Act, the Commissioner may issue a written order and require the discontinuance of such activity or practice. D. Every pool shall file with the Commissioner a copy of its constitution, articles of incorporation, agreement or association, bylaws, rules and regulations governing its activities, list of members, the name and address of a resident of this state upon whom notice, orders of the Commissioner, or process may be served, and any changes in amendments or changes in the foregoing. E. Any residual market mechanism, plan or agreement to implement such a mechanism, and any changes or amendments thereto, shall be submitted in writing to the Commissioner for consideration and approval, together with such information as may be reasonably required.
