A bill for an act relating to the required beneficiary and use of a public officer insurance policy.

SSB 3069 removes a requirement that the state must be named as the beneficiary of insurance policies used by public officers instead of bonds. Currently, such policies must cover injury claims and name the state as beneficiary under Iowa Code 64.3(4), but this bill deletes that provision. The change directly affects public officers who choose insurance over bonds to cover potential claims from injured parties or entities. This simplifies the policy structure by eliminating the state's mandatory beneficiary role while maintaining coverage for injury claims.
