Bronwyn Pullar and the Other 6,000 Victims

The Bronwyn Pullar/ACC fiasco keeps on rolling on.  

Bronwyn Pullar was emailed the personal details of over 6,000 ACC clients when she sought to obtain benefits from ACC. ACC laid a complaint of blackmail against her. Pullar has now been cleared of the criminal allegations. One thing that made a difference for her is that she recorded her meetings with ACC. There is a lesson here for everyone who needs to deal with ACC – take notes of every meeting and phone call. Even better – get everything in writing or take someone with you to meetings. As Bronwyn Pullar discovered, doing so can save the day when a big, bloated Corporation tries to squash you and your entitlements.

But what about the other 6,000 victims of the case? Their personal details were disclosed inappropriately. They seem to be the forgotten victims of this case and are another example of the lack of accountability surrounding the Accident Compensation Corporation.
