Publicity

123. The ACC Board published advertisements in the major daily newspapers and a notice in the Gazette on 1 December 2009 advising the levy rates that they have recommended to me. ACC and NZTA will undertake a joint communications programme to advise levy payers of the changes to the Motor Vehicle Account.

124. Due to the significant increases proposed by ACC there has been considerable publicity around levies this year. I expect further media interest once levies are announced.
