John Judge is just Nick Smiths parrot. The CEO doesnt seem to mention any alarming figures which suggests there arent any

I’m reading the report, very enlighting. Am most curious as to why (and under a National government) the number of staff paid over $100,000 has jumped from 192 to 259 (a 35% increase)
I also see John Judge calls the financial situation ‘unsustainable’ and note in the last year the deficit between assets and liabilities grew $5 billion to $13 billion.

Are you suggesting that Jan White would dispute the figures?

Just read the CEOs report from ACC L-rat. You wont find the scare mongering from Smith and Judd there

Also couldnt find mention of $4 Billion ‘loss’ from the CEO.

Thats because it came from Smiths spin doctors

I’m looking forward to Labour’s strong and fast response. I assume we will see this soon in the major news media?
No doubt you’ll be able to set the record straight that there is no deficit in the ACC budget and it’s all just scare-mongering from National?
No doubt Labour will be able to produce solid evidence that everything is actually hunky dory with ACC and that we won’t need extra levies to sort it out.

Thanks Sacha – good articles links working now. I see from SST we are being softened up to accept rapid Cabinet decision to increease tax especially on low income Kiwis based on Nick Smith’s understanding of finance. A real worry.

[...] maybe not. It seems like it is suddenly going to get a whole lot more expensive. Trevor Mallard seems to think that the government is fear-mongering. He, along with Brian Fallow and Rod Oram, [...]
