The Detail · Fair or victim-blaming - the fight over rising ACC levies · 28 Jun 2026 podcast

He's worried that riders will be forced to give up their passion because of the higher costs and argues, actually, it won't even save ACC money. voice-verified

ACC says it's legally required to consult on levy changes every three years. voice-verified

But Mark says ACC is messing with the scheme's original purpose, which is to help prevent injuries and get Kiwis back to everyday life after an accident. voice-verified

ACC is a no-fault scheme, and when it was introduced, it took away the right to sue in court... voice-verified

for injuries covered by the scheme. voice-verified

What is ACC, what is the minister saying to this? voice-verified

How are they responding? voice-verified

And what about motorcyclists, especially pensioner motorcyclists, you know, those who don't have much money? voice-verified

How are they responding? voice-verified

Because that's a big jump in prices, Mark. voice-verified

I have actually spoken to a woman who had a hemicorporectomy. voice-verified

She was basically cut in half because of a motorcycle accident, a woman who has been degloved by a motorcycle accident. voice-verified

So, you know, they can have severe injuries coming off a motorbike. voice-verified

Is there a fairer way to sort of fund these injuries to get these people back on their bikes and back into life while still recognising, I guess, the costs of ACC? voice-verified

What would be the best way of dealing with this? voice-verified

That's it for today. voice-verified
