Time Extension of your Official Information Act request, reference: GOV-041646
Thank you for your request of 18 July 2025, asking for the following information under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act):
1.
Budget vs Actual Expenditure by Executive Portfolio – FY2021 to FY2024
For each financial year from FY2021 to FY2024, please provide the following for each Executive
Leadership Team (ELT) member’s portfolio (i.e., all cost centres and areas reporting to them):
- The approved annual budget and actual expenditure (If any dollar figures are considered
sensitive, please provide percentage variance instead.)
- Include the name of the relevant ELT member responsible for the portfolio in each year.
2.
FTE by Executive Portfolio – FY2021 to Present
For each Executive Leadership Team member’s portfolio, please provide:
- The budgeted FTE vs actual FTE for each financial year from FY2021 through to the current
financial year to date.
- The year-on-year change in actual FTE (as a number or percentage).
- If internal tracking includes more granular time points (e.g., quarterly or mid-year FTE), that is
welcomed.
- Include the name of the relevant ELT member responsible for the portfolio in each year.
In addition, for front-line and service delivery roles, please provide:
- Any instances since FY2021 to today where FTE increases were sought and approved.
- Copies of or excerpts from relevant approval documents, such as ELT or Board memos or
submissions, which approved or endorsed increases in FTE for service delivery functions (e.g.
Contact Centres, Claims Operations, Recovery Teams, etc.).
3.
Outstanding Claims Liability (OCL) – FY2018 to FY2024
Please provide the year-end Outstanding Claims Liability (OCL) figure for each financial year
from FY2018 to FY2024.
- Include the name of the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) accountable for each year.
- If available, please also include the annual growth rate or percentage change in OCL over this
period.
4.
ACC Investment Fund – Year-End Balances – FY2018 to FY2024
Please provide the year-end balance of the ACC Investment Fund (or any equivalent structure
or name it may have had) for each of the financial years FY2018 to FY2024.
- If the structure, naming, or reporting format of the fund changed during this period, please
include a short explanatory note.
ACC needs extra time
The Act requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after
the day we received your request. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit and we
are therefore writing to notify you of an extension of the time to make our decision, to 12 September
2025.
This extension is necessary because your request necessitates a search through a large quantity of
information and meeting the original time limit would unreasonably interfere with our operations and
consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are such that a proper response cannot
reasonably be made within the original time limit.
If you are not happy with this letter
You have the right to make a complaint to the Ombudsman. Information about how to do this is
available a
t www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or by phoning 0800 802 602.
