Higher payments for New Hampshire Guard claims
The law raises the maximum state claim payment per person from $500 to $1,000. It covers accidents caused by New Hampshire National Guard activities and adds claims against the Department of Military Affairs and Veterans Services. Payment remains optional: the governor and council decide based on the adjutant general’s recommendation. Claims payable in whole or in part by the United States remain excluded. Claimants must apply to the adjutant general, who investigates and recommends whether to pay. Payments come from the department’s budget. The law takes effect 60 days after passage.
