GOVERNMENT IS STICKING to its $56 million promise to the policyholders of CLICO and British American Insurance Company (BAICO).

Minister of Finance Chris Sinckler told the DAILY NATION that as soon as the judicial manager was given the go-ahead by the High Court, the money would be released by the Treasury for dissemination to policyholders, some of whom had been waiting since 2009 to recoup their losses after CLICO collapsed.
