MARCH 9, 2018: If anyone in the Mackay, Proserpine, Whitsunday and Bowen regions is still trying to settle claims, finalise unresolved scopes of work or any other insurance issues I would ask them to make contact with either my office or the Whitsunday Neighbourhood Centre.We are approaching the one year anniversary of Cyclone Debbie, and I want to ensure that all insurance issues are resolved.My office has been working closely with a number of affected residents who have had difficult claims and a protracted settlement process.If others are having difficulties and are battling the process on their own, now is the time to speak up.Contact my office on 4944 0662 or email details to george.christensen.mp@aph.gov.auWhitsunday region residents can also contact the Whitsunday Neighbourhood Centre on 4946 7850 or email nc@whitnc.org.auThe Insurance Council of Australia will also visit the region next week and one-on-one appointments are available.To find out more phone 1800 734 621 or go to www.disasters.org.au/forums
