The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee published a report on 'Genetics and Insurance' in April which reviewed the use of genetic test results by insurers, their relevance and reliability and their wider consequences for research and patient care. Although the Government understands fears that testing could lead to new forms of discrimination, it also recognises the concerns of insurance companies that individuals might take out larger than usual insurance in the expectation of an early claim. Discussions have already taken place between the Government and the Association of British Insurers (ABI) which have resulted in a stronger moratorium. The Government recognises that the moratorium is unlikely to provide a permanent solution, but it will give time to consider implications of advance in genetic science and develop a policy that can work in the long term.
