Section 2199.3.2 - Approval of Applications(a) Reviewed applications shall be approved if the Commissioner determines that the manual or manual contents or the use thereof would be consistent with the Insurance Code and would not result in activities and practices by insurers that are unfair, unreasonable or otherwise inconsistent with the Insurance Code.(b) Approvals shall be in writing, served on the applicant. No manual may be distributed for use in writing risks located in California until it has been approved. Approval of a manual shall remain in effect until such time as such approval is revoked pursuant to section 2199.3.4 of these regulations.(c) After a manual has been approved, if it is revised, the revised pages must be submitted for the Commissioner's review and approval. The revised pages may not be distributed for use in writing risks located in California until they have been approved by the Commissioner. If approval of the revised pages is denied, such denial will not affect the status of the remaining portion of the manual. The same standards and procedures which apply to approval of a manual and hearings related to the disapproval of a manual, will apply to determinations regarding revised pages.Cal. Code Regs.
