Is Product Liability Needed?"The insurance shall also cover bodily injury, including disease, illness and death arising out of the licensee's premises/operations, products, and personal injury"
Our opinion--YES!
Since WAC 314-55-082 Draft Rules has specified products. Most Commercial General Liability policies are offered without products and completed operations coverage or product liability.

Impact on Insurance Industry● More insurance carriers willing to offer new programs
because of legalization? Not Sure! ● Insurance carriers have been reluctant due to federal
uncertainty and unable to evaluate potential exposure of offering products exposure
