The bill which aims to simplify and speed up the EQC claims process passed its third reading last night.
National supported the bill, but expressed disappointment it didn't include a number of submissions - including its call for people to be allowed to immediately file claims with private insurers.
Wairarapa MP Alastair Scott sees this as a missed opportunity.
He says we now have to wait for the independent review of the EQC, before getting to the meat of what needs to be done.
