Budget 2022 also increased funding for sexual abuse assessment and treatment services. We talked to the Minister about what this would mean, noting that it will both increase the number of hours ACC clients spend with clinical staff and the rate of pay to those staff per hour. The investment will build the service back up to providing consistent 24/7 clinical cover over the forecast period. The Government's 2022 minimum wage increase meant an approximately $38 increase in ACC's minimum loss of potential earnings weekly compensation rates, but claimants had to wait three months for 1 April to 1 July to actually receive this money. The Minister addressed the committee and explained how the investment through Budget 2022 will bring forward the timing of ACC's weekly compensation rate changes so that it is aligned with the timing of any changes to the minimum wage. So it means that all these changes can then happen at the same time. This will disproportionately benefit low-income earners and in particularly in respect of loss of potential earnings entitlements for ACC's Māori and Pacific clients.
