You missed the fundamental point i was making... Rape/Sexual abuse is not an accident it is a CRIME... Thats the major point of difference between some one tweaking an ankle in a rugby game and a person of ANY age being raped/sexually assaulted.You mentioned earlier that Victim Support isn't able to provide support because its not setup for it... Why is that? It's because previously it was covered by ACC, what i was saying is that the government agencies need to be restructured to include and fund relevent items related to their department. Victim Support SHOULD cover this, and maybe we should look at restructuring the ACC / Corrections / Justice Systems to properly distribute claims. It's the same with your car insurance there is a section on it regarding Medical Costs as a result of an accident. Because it's not compulsory to have 3rd party insurance, we all have to pay for uninsured drivers medical costs and the people they injure. Â

They don't need to make a new department... If you actually look at the government departments, there is sooo much duplication of work it's not funny... Why not utilize departments like hmmm it's an odd name... Victim Support??? Have it come under the department of Corrections charter. Thus "Victims" of crimes are supported by the criminal system.... Or have it as a jointly funded operation by Correction and Health... I'm personally all for getting someone in to restructure the whole government organisation chart. Dad's done a bit of work for the Corrections (Prisons) at a high up level as a contractor, and it's a joke. Community Services, Prisons, Parole, etc... are all run organizationally as separate entities all the way to the very top. Overtime all organisations get bloated and fat and inefficient - most corp enties will then restructure the company - join roles, redevelop areas for different more suited tasks, etc... Very rarely does this happen with government org's. Wellington City Council is just as bad... The where going to expand a role to have more new work, so instead off utilizing the 3 people with lite work loads that where in the same area, and where currently doing the work, they removed the task from those 3 people and created a new full time role, making 4 people with lite work loads...

As someone who's start 3 degrees (2 Engineering and 1 IT/Business) and left them because i got bored with Uni. Me and exams = not good... Me and Assignments = legend... Spend the time in 7th form, have a look through the Uni/Polytech/etc... course lists for all subjects - if you don't know what you want to do you might get some inspiration from the listed papers as it might spark the whooo that sounds interesting. GET 7TH form! and work hard at it... 7th form is your key to get into some of the degree's you might want to do... Waiting till your 21 to apply as a mature student sucks and leaves you very very much behind others when you want develop your carrer. In saying that tho, should you have life experances (i.e. exposer to business/field specific operations vs fresh out of uni with no experance) not fresh out of uni head high in the sky.... blah blah blah... employers will look at that espically the field specific experance. I'm 29 - still don't know what i really want to do... I do IT because it's easy for me at the moment, and i get paid ok.... Would love to go and do what i really wanted to do which was industrial design/product development, but lack of drawing skills kills that...

I thought it was taboo for use in related to non-criminal acts Yeah, thats why they where wanting the mental illness tag, to make it fit within the charter of ACC... Shouldn't it be that if it's out side the charter of the department but it's being covered then we either need to change the charter of ACC or properly setup the departments who's charter it is to provide the support? So change the funding to have it appropriately covered by the correct department. Also the new levy on convictions should go to paying part of the costs.Also suicide shouldn't be covered - i DON'T agree that people should get paid support for sucide... I'm sorry it's harsh - I've had a flatmate gas themselves, and i was the last person to talk to her alive... maybe it's just me but if i'm having problems with someones death i don't expect the government/you and you to pay for me.

I've been thinking about it for a bit and i just don't understand it... ACC as per their website: http://www.acc.co.nz/index.htm The Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) provides comprehensive, no-fault personal injury cover for all New Zealand residents and visitors to New Zealand. shouldn't rape councilling be covered under something like Victim Support http://www.victimsupport.org.nz/aboutus.htm Victim Support has two primary objectives: To provide information, support and assistance to individual victims, witnesses, their families and friends. To raise public awareness and recognition of the effects of crime and promote victim's rights. Victim Support provides 24-hour emotional support, personal advocacy and information to all people affected by crime and trauma throughout New Zealand. By striving to meet these objectives we aim to provide a comprehensive, flexible service to reduce the effects of crime and trauma. It's a act of crime not accident that has caused the trauma so why is it delt with as an accident and not a crime? How much other stuff is ACC being used to fund that really should be covered by something more approriate? Have we just decided to use ACC as a coverall for support requirements to help "reduce" department expenditure?

waiting for stupid corporate decisions to become soo bad that they revert back to how it was, because nothing is getting done now... also... waiting for others to do their job so you can do yours... only to get told off by your boss for not getting stuff done because others haven't approved/done the work you need before you can do your job to make your boss happy.... see above....
