(a)
(1) The General Assembly finds and declares that it is in the public interest that a domestic mutual insurer be permitted to reorganize in a manner that preserves attributes of its mutuality while facilitating capital-raising abilities and corporate affiliations on terms and conditions that are fair and equitable to the mutual insurer's policyholders.
(2) The General Assembly further finds that because policyholders of a mutual insurer have membership interests in the mutual insurer, the Insurance Commissioner should have broad authority in reviewing a reorganization, and the procedures and criteria to be applied by the commissioner should be flexible within the parameters of this subchapter.
(b) This subchapter shall be liberally construed to effect the legislative intent set forth in this section and shall not be interpreted to limit the powers granted to the commissioner by other laws.
