The committee recommended passage of SF 3779 to adopt a regulatory framework for travel insurance, including disclosures, a free‑look refund period and a ban on illusory coverage, with industry and commerce witnesses supporting the measure.

A legislative committee voted to advance LC620310S, the Georgia Department of Banking and Finances annual housekeeping substitute, which would let trained financial-institution staff place discretionary holds to block suspected elder financial exploitation, require registration and consumer disclosures for virtual-currency kiosks, and tighten annual registration and screening of litigation financiers.

The Senate Transportation Committee heard testimony March 31 on SB 244, a bill that adopts a nationwide model for travel insurance; industry witnesses and the insurance director said it clarifies definitions, requires disclosures (including a 10'15-day free-look refund), and codifies premium-tax treatment.
