Reference: DCDL-0016412
Description: ACC Minister Nick Smith holds a copy of his 'ACC Plans' and looks somewhat perplexed as he tries to 'explain our aim'. He stands in front of a target with 'ACC' at the centre and the words 'downsizing' 'profit driven', 'privatisation' and 'user pays reduce benefits' at the four points of the compass around it. Refers to the decision "in principle" confirmed by Accident Compensation Corporation Minister Nick Smith to allow competition in the workplace insurance market following his lengthy consideration of a "stocktake" of the scheme begun last year but completed in June. The Government will seek a mandate from voters next year before allowing private insurers to compete with ACC for a slice of the $743 million a year workplace insurance market in a plan bitterly opposed by Labour, the Greens and unions.
