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”.

Gerry Brownlee, New Zealand's minister of Earthquake Commission, said that a review to the Earthquake Commission Act could raise the amount of natural disaster cover to $150,000 New Zealand ($109,390) per claim from NZD 100,000, Stuff.co.nz reported. The cover would no longer cover residential contents, Mr. Brownlee said. The changes would not affect existing claims, he added.
