Warren Forster: Lawyer and researcher on the need for a review of ACC

There’s hopes a major new review of ACC will take a long-term view. 

ACC Minister Matt Doocey has ordered a six month review into the agency after it reported a $7.2 billion deficit and a drop in the rehabilitation rates. 

Levies for earners and businesses are set to increase 5% each year for the next three years. 

Lawyer and researcher Warren Forster told Heather du Plessis-Allan the scheme has been failing for years. 

He says the Government needs to look at how ACC can better get people back into work.
