ACC NZ, Case of the fox put in charge of the Hen house

NZ has many Dioxin hotspots and the medical fraternity chooses to act dumb on the health effects and sing the government department of health song which they got from IOM and American institute whose scope was written to minimize liability due to Agent Orange.

The NZ Government are out of sync with the real experts in this field "By Choice" its cost effective to hide behind the shield of the IOM list of Health effects. go to this page and/or watch the video of an expert who really does know what Dioxin does and isn't scared to say so
Dr. Linda Birnbaum, (EPA Toxicology Division Director) 2004; In 2010 she is director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences


ACC {Accident Compensation Corporation} is hell bent on not knowing any other tune either as its chooses to hide behind fn01 the IOM and will go to all sorts of tactics to ensure they accept no liability for work related injury due to dioxin exposure in or around someone’s working environment.

The writer only knows 1st hand the depth and lengths the will plunge too. Even the courts choice to not activate provisions to ensure evidence present by individuals is disregarded and by default defer to the ACC {Accident Compensation Corporation}  Toxicology Panel.

ACC {Accident Compensation Corporation}  has a war chest of $$$ which knows no end and they exploit this to the fullest, only a handful of NZ citizens have fiscal resources to campaign against ACC {Accident Compensation Corporation}  with Lawyers and expert witness evidence. 

Having your own medical reports and specialist reports mean absolutely not one thing when dealing with ACC and the appeal process of review and district courts, as the system weights the ACC {Accident Compensation Corporation} Toxicology panel heavier than anything you could possibly afford.

Lawyers don't work for the insides of a donut;  Lawyers generally want the donut and the bit from the inside just to look at your case ie. $600-$700 for an opinion.

See below the clause: available in the ACC {Accident Compensation Corporation}  act yet the Judge will not activate it unless pressed to by appellant 

Guess what us lay people don't know that. We naively believe a fairytale & assume -

That the Courts/Judges above all else seeks the "TRUTH" and is totally committed to "JUSTICE" and "FAIR RULINGS"

"FATAL ERROR FOLKS"

{THE CLAUSE}

Authority shall consult the parties, and if the Authority and the 

parties agree on a suitable person to be so appointed the Authority 

shall appoint that person to be an assessor for the purposes of the

The writer feels the formation of the ACC {Accident Compensation Corporation} is the simple case of:

"putting the fox in charge of looking after the hens in the chook house"

fn01 "the fox" From Wikipedia
The corporation was founded as the Accident Compensation Commission on 1 April 1974 as a result of the Accident Compensation Act 1972. Its principal governing act today is the Accident Compensation Act 2001. 
As a Crown entity, ACC is responsible to a Cabinet Minister via its Board of Directors. 
Unlike most other Crown entities, it has its own dedicated ministerial portfolio, which as of September 2014 is currently held by Craig Foss in an acting role, following the resignation of Judith Collins.
