BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

A NZD 143 million claim for the city's Lancaster Park stadium is said to be a major stumbling block in the council's negotiations with Civic Assurance. The council has said the park is a write-off. However, the insurer has said the park can be repaired.
