Dear Mr Hutton
A.C.C. CLAIMS RELEVANT TO CIVIC
CHILDCARE CENTRE
Martin Maguire (Senior Community Development Adviser) of
our staff has recently been
in discussion with several parents who wished to make claims on the
Corporation in
relation to the Civic Childcare inquiry.
These claims relate to time off their paid work to
attend interviews, court proceedings and briefings.
When they have been referred to your local office the parents have been
advised that it is
unable to give any indication if their claims will be accepted. This is apparently because
the ACC has yet to confirm new regulations (promised for July) concerning
this type of
claim.
We are concerned that the lack of such regulations is causing unnecessary
distress to
parents and families who are under considerable pressure already arising
from the events
themselves.
We are led to believe that you can assist from Head Office, and we would be
grateful if
you could give some positive advice in this connection to the local office
of the ACC.
Please address any reply to this fax to Martin Maguire, Christchurch City
Council.
City Manager
