Select Committee submissions close 26 Nov

I also put in a submission. A very short one that didn't address any specific clause but suggested a total philosophy change to bring ACC back to meet the woodhouse principles.

Submission made!

Umm, I hope that after midnight counts as in by the due date :/

It's hard writing a submission when you're sick. I wouldn't have left it so late but I actually thought I'd missed it already!

I ticked the "I wish to appear" thing because the things said I should, but I really don't want to... I'm better with writing than convincing face to face

Oh that should be OK, just submitted mine - 3 pages. As long as you got the reference number it means it's in the system. I hope the committee actually reads them and takes them to heart, it took me a while!

Pretty sure they will close tonight as deadline was 26th?
Anyway, I just submitted mine too and got a reference number.

I uploaded a PDF of my 3 page submission with some comments to the committee staff requesting an Auckland appearnce. I've just had an email through supposedly with a copy of my submission attached that only has a copy of my comments re Auckland. The email address is a DO NOT REPLY type.

Has anyone else had this experience? I am concerned that they have not actually received the document.

Maybe I should just resubmit it, just in case...

EDIT: I just resubmunted my PDF and told them what I had done in my comments, so hopefully they won't throw it away.

Hi I, in my infinite non-wisdom didn't realise there were 2 separate submissions we could make, I only submitted on the ACC one that closed on 10th November, I rallied around the office and got five submissions from other bikers, we posted it on Friday morning the 6th Nov and all got a letter from ACC yesterday (4th Dec) saying our submissions arrived late - over 5 days to get from Dunedin to Wellington. Is there any use trying to get our late submissions accepted at this stage?? Thoroughly brassed off at missing both close off dates. Or is it worth trying to get a late submission to the Government?

You think that's bad?

I received a letter from Nick Smith (addressed from Wellington) yesterday (5th Dec) which was dated 20th November.

Either NZ Post now takes 15 days from Wellington to Kapiti, or Nicks Myth is so bad with numbers, he can't even date a letter correctly!
