<p>The Government takes insurance fraud very seriously. It has recently set up a taskforce,
chaired by the former Law Commissioner David Hertzell, which will consider the range
of insurance fraud and make recommendations to reduce the level of fraudulent claims
with a view to reducing premiums and protecting the interests of honest consumers.
The taskforce aims to publish an interim report by Spring 2015 with a final report
by the end of 2015.</p><p> </p><p>The Government has also been working closely with
stakeholders from across the industry to develop a package of reforms to tackle the
