From a couple of CA-type sites, for anyone who cares:
Quote:
There are several situations where discrimination against men or women may be allowed:
[...]
-insurance policies where it can be shown that women are a better or a worse insurance risk than men (though this is being reviewed, and may not be allowed in the future).

Quote:
It is not unlawful for an insurance company to discriminate on the grounds of a person’s sex when the company is assessing risk, provided that the company can show that:-
it can provide information to justify the discrimination; and
the information was obtained from a reliable source; and
the discrimination is reasonable in relation to the information available.
