I have to say, the "insurance" argument seems totally specious. Few of us have personal injury insurance whilst caving, or daily life for that matter, so being on a rescue suddenly requiring insurance is silly. Take the logic to an extreme and you couldn't assist an injured party you happen to come across because you aren't insured. Or if the rescue team as a whole wasn't covered by police insurance we'd still carry on doing rescues wouldn't we ?
I should stress I am not commenting on this or any other incident, and specifically not commenting on whether people should or should not jump the gun, which you may or may not decide to do for all sorts of perfectly good reasons, but insurance really should not even be a consideration
