1.       Name of Direction
 
This Direction is the Treasurer to Australian Reinsurance Pool Corporation (Premiums) Direction 2007.
 
2.       Commencement

3.             Definitions
 
In this Direction:
 
Australia Post means the Australian Postal Corporation established by the Australian Postal Corporation Act 1989.
 
Corporation means the Australian Reinsurance Pool Corporation.
 
          Premium income means the gross base premium (Gross Base Premium)       written by a person (the Reinsured) during the period of a contract of                                                  reinsurance with the Corporation in respect of eligible insurance contracts less                                                             only returned premiums and cancellations relating to those covers.
 
          For the purpose of calculating Premium income for a contract of reinsurance in    respect of a contract of insurance:
 
          (a)     that is comprised of two or more distinct covers that have been packaged           or bundled together; and
          (b)     that was offered on the basis that the insured must take out one or more                     of a number of covers offered; and
          (c)     for which the premiums attributable to each cover comprising that                       contract of insurance are precisely quantifiable; and
          (d)     that contains covers that (if provided individually) would be eligible                    insurance contracts,
 
          the Gross Base Premium for the contract of insurance is the premium       attributable to those covers that (if provided individually) would be eligible                                                      insurance contracts, less only returned premiums and cancellations relating to                                                                 those covers.
         
          The calculation of Gross Base Premium shall not include the Fire Service        Levy, GST and Stamp Duty.
 
Tier A property means eligible property within the Postcode List for Tier A set out in Schedule 1.
 
Tier B property means eligible property within the Postcode List for Tier B set out in Schedule 1.
 
Tier C property includes eligible property within the Postcode List for Tier C set out in Schedule 1 and also includes eligible property that is not within a postcode set out in Schedule 1.
 
Note:   Some terms in this Direction, for example, eligible insurance contract and eligible property, have the same meaning as in the Act.
 
              4.      New postcodes and postcodes with changed boundaries
                      Subject to any contrary directions under s 38(2)(d) of the Act:
 a)          if an area covered by a postcode within the Postcode List for Tier B, set out in Schedule 1, is divided by Australia Post into two or more areas covered by new postcodes, the new postcodes are to be treated as if they were included in the Postcode List for Tier B; and
b)           if an area covered by a postcode within the Postcode List for Tier C, set out in Schedule 1, is divided by Australia Post into two or more areas covered by new postcodes, the new postcodes are to be treated as if they were included in the Postcode List for Tier C; and
c)           if a population centre with a population of more than 100,000 people, which is currently covered by a postcode, or postcodes, within the Postcode List for Tiers A or B, expands in area and a new postcode is issued by Australia Post (or the boundaries of an existing postcode are changed by Australia Post) to cover this new area, the postcode covering that new area is to be treated as if it were included in the Postcode List for Tier B.
