Re: Dr John Lewis Collier (Specialist Psychiatrist) 11 Firth St Hamilton East/100 Clarence Street Hamilton Practice letter of Confirmation working hours in Private Practice

Anthony Jordan made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation

The request was refused by Accident Compensation Corporation.

From: Anthony Jordan

Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,

Given in the earlier request Dr Collier had been 'consulted with'
by ACC, it would be more prudent for transparency sake to have
requested a formal written reply by Colliers 'Clinic'.

In the event the Ombudsmen carry's out a formal investigation of
whether the information disclosed by the Corp is infact true, the
ACC could be seen to be obstructing justice to a greater problem.

The Ombudsmen I can only assume uses written/Hard Copy/Electronic
facts, recollection via a phone call would be 'Incredulous'?

1/ Would the Corporation consider obtaining a signed letter by Dr
Collier confirming contact regarding this request

2/ Would the Corporation consider obtaining confirmation that Dr
Collier has always complied with the appropriate contract. In
particular Twenty (20) hours per week in a staffed clinic as a
private consultant to the wider public.

Yours faithfully,

Anthony Jordan

Dear Mr Jordan

Thank you for your email of 15 October 2015, which relates to ACC’s
consultation with Dr Collier noted in our response of 27 March 2014. ACC
has carefully considered the issues you have raised and is of the view
that our response of 27 March 2014 was appropriate and complete.

ACC confirmed in 2014 that Dr Collier was working in excess of 20 hours
per week. ACC does not consider further investigation is warranted at this
stage.

Regards
