         Re:      Rule 24f-2 Notice for Voyageur Insured Funds, Inc.
                  (File Nos. 33-11235 and 811-4977)

Dear Sir or Madam:

         We have acted as counsel to Voyaguer Insured Funds, Inc., a Minnesota
corporation (the "Funds"), in connection with the Funds' Registration Statement
on Form N-1A (File Nos. 33-11235 and 811-4977). This opinion is addressed to you
in connection with a filing by the Funds of a notice (the "Notice") pursuant to
Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. In that
connection, we have examined such documents and have reviewed such questions of
law as we have considered necessary and appropriate for the purposes of this
opinion. Based thereon, we advise you that, in our opinion, the 7,741,178 shares
of common stock, $.01 par value per share, sold by the Funds for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1996, as set forth in the Notice, were legally issued, have
been fully paid, and are nonassessable, if issued and sold upon the terms and in
the manner set forth in the Registration Statement of the Funds referred to
above.

                                                              Very truly yours,

                                                            /s/ Dorsey & Whitney
