Verification log

Reconciled against the National Insurance Regulatory Authority (NIRA, nira.gov.sd), whose site names the 19 insurance companies it supervises - its own published count. All 8 existing rows matched and 11 companies were added. NIRA publishes no licence categories, numbers or dates, so classes for the added rows are inferred from the Insurance and Takaful Act 2003 regime and from the companies' registered names.
