EQC - Removal of liquefaction (silt)

EQC have updated their FAQ on the removal of silt from driveways and gardens. The additions are highlighted below.

The FAQ now reads:

My garden and driveway are covered in liquefaction. If I pay a person to clear this mess can I claim back the clearance, removal and tip fees from EQC if I have a claim?

If you have insurance, EQC covers the cost of removal or disposal of liquefaction. Contact EQC on 0800 DAMAGE to have your liquefaction removed by Fletcher EQR.

If you have had someone other than Fletcher EQR remove your liquefaction and it's later than January 2012, make sure you get a tax invoice from the contractor and keep any receipts such as tip receipts so that you can claim back costs from the EQC, if this work was caused by earthquake.

The earlier version was:

If you have insurance, EQC covers the cost of removal or disposal of liquefaction. Make sure you get a tax invoice from the contractor and keep any receipts such as tip receipts so that you can claim back costs from the EQC, if this work was caused by earthquake.
