A large insurance bill is looming from the latest weather-related disasters.
The landslide at Mount Maunganui combined with flood damage in Northland, Coromandel and Gisborne means that the claims are set to roll in.
Insurance and Financial Services Ombudsman Karen Stevens told Ryan Bridge that people affected can expect delays given the high number of claims being made.
"I think everybody understands that with a significant weather event, there are going to be more delays than if it's just business as usual."
