 What are peoples experience with any requirements for personal liability
 insurance for things like lug events,  or install days.

 I remember at our first lug meet at exeter uni. back around year
 2000,.we just got people to sign a disclaimer,

 Just wondered, it may help dclug members when organising things like
 install days.

My experience has been that the venue has provided the insurance, or
we've just met informally in a public place so as a pub and so
insurance wasn't needed. I guess if you were meeting in somewhere like
a scout hut/church hall things might be different.

I don't actually know what the law is in regards to this though.
Anyone know when PLI is actually needed?

Hi all,

PLI is primarily for a business/organisation and public gatherings
should be covered. If one or more persons gathers at a public place i.e.
a pub or other host which is a business; even a scout hut or church hall
etc., it is the business/organisation that should have such coverage
where applicable.

Regards

Phil

Hmm, that is quite an interesting question, something that i've never really
considered in relation to a LUG...
I'm guessing that if it's just a normal LUG then the venue might be able to
help with health and safety considerations. For anything more like an
install day, a disclaimer might help (although, ensuring that it is legally
binding is an entirely different matter).
