ACC Bonus?
Letter to the Editor
by Mel Tapp, Balclutha

I have followed with great interest your articles on ACC and its meanness to some "stock".

Can you tell me is this the same ACC that at the time of the Peter Ellis case in Christchurch went around handing out claim forms and advising people how to claim $10,000 for alleged sexual abuse?

They seemed to be so helpful in filling out forms and encouraging people to claim a windfall, you would have thought they got a bonus for every $10,000 handed out.
