Culture Reviewers

DC made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for DC to read a recent response and update the status.

From: DC

Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,

Please treat this as a request for official information under the Official Information Act 1982.

I understand that Doug Craig is no longer involved as a reviewer in ACC’s ongoing Cultural Review. I would like to better understand the circumstances surrounding any changes to the composition of the review team.

Accordingly, I request the following information:

1. Communications Regarding Reviewer Departure

Any correspondence (including emails, memos, Teams chats, or meeting notes) between members of the Executive Leadership Team or the ACC Board that refer to, discuss, or relate to any changes to the reviewers appointed to the Cultural Review, particularly any reference to Doug Craig no longer being involved.

2. Internal Discussion or Documentation

Any internal ACC documentation or communication that records or explains the rationale, decision-making, or process regarding a change to the appointed Cultural Review reviewers.

This includes any briefing notes, risk considerations, communications with the reviewers, or updates provided to the Executive Team or Board or Minister.

3. Complaints or Concerns (If Any Exist)

If any complaints, concerns, or feedback were received internally (by ACC staff or Board members) relating to either of the independent reviewers, I request copies of those communications.

Yours faithfully,

DC
