  • 1 5 March 2021 Ms Mary Drakeford Clerk of Committee Finance
    1 5 March 2021 Ms Mary Drakeford Clerk of Committee Finance & Expenditure Committee Parliament WELLINGTON Dear Mary SUBMISSION: Petition Regarding Continued Use of Cheques (2017/574) NATURE OF PETITION On 27 February 2020 I launched a petition so that people can continue to pay Inland Revenue and other government departments by cheque. The petition (2017/574) reads: That Government agencies, such as the IRD and ACC, be required to accept cheaues as legal tender for payment of taxes and services. The stimulus for setting up the petition was twofold: 1. On 16 May 2019, KiwiBank (majority owned by the Crown1) announced its decision to stop issuing and accepting cheques from 28 February 2020; 2. Inland Revenue had announced that it would stop accepting cheques from 1 March 2020; and 3. A number of constituents had highlighted to me their deep concerns in their own ability to operate in an electronic or digital banking environment. RECOMMENDATION That the Finance & Expenditure Committee undertake an inquiry to assess whether Government agencies and entities, including IRD, ACC and KiwiBank, have and will put in place adequate provisions to allow those people who are not able to, cannot afford to, or it is not safe for them to pay for goods and services digitally and who have traditionally been able to complete these transactions by cheque. In doing so, the inquiry should especially have regard to the planned closures of bank branches in rural and smaller communities. BACKGROUND The discontinuance of cheques is a significant issue for some in our communities. To put it in context: .

We have included our agenda for change. This is a medium-long term agenda but we have highlighted some areas that are a priority to make progress, gather momentum and see early results. In preparation for this briefing we consulted our members to understand their biggest concerns, issues they face, the positive trends they are seeing in their communities, and their ideas for the future. The social service system requires far-reaching change to meet our objective of genuinely building services around what children, families, whānau and their communities need. Currently, our overall system of support does not reflect that. Funding streams are fragmented and this cascades down to siloed contracting and service delivery.

The Covid-19 pandemic highlighted many systemic disability issues but it also offered us the chance to advocate for change. Many disabled people were suddenly cut off from the supports they rely on to live independently in Alert Level 4 or three. With the affects of this pandemic still playing out it has shown us that we can do things differently and retaining some of these new ways of doing things is part of a more inclusive NZ going forward. Lockdown also showed that working from home can be done. Many disabled people would benefit from this as a form of reasonable accommodation. The digital divide revealed that many disabled people either didn't have or didn't know how to use the technology that allowed people to stay connected while face to face meetings were banned. More work and more funding are required to ensure that disabled people have the skills and can afford to participate in the digital world. DPA would like to acknowledge Countdown who gave DPA members an online code to prioritise them in online shopping so that disabled people could access food during lockdown. DPA initiated Bubble Hui initially to check up on the health and wellbeing of our s Report ’ members.

I have really appreciated the support and guidance I have received from the members of the National Executive Committee. DPA continues to work in a changing environment. As a pan-disability organisation we are committed to ensuring that we continue to listen to disabled people across all age groups and with as wide a range of life experience and perspectives as possible. This rich information helps to inform the policy advice we give to government agencies and informs our contribution to the work we do as partners in the DPO Coalition. We continue to reach out to our community and nominate amazingly skilled and capable disabled people to working groups. Gerri PomeroyWe have had further change in our National Office. Esther Woodbury our National Policy and Projects Manager resigned in December 2018, Henrietta Bollinger; Policy Advisor/Analyst resigned in early 2019. Lynne Edmonson retired from her role as National Operations Manager in April. DPA took this opportunity to restructure and recruit for a Chief Executive. This recruitment resulted in the appointment of Prudence Walker as Chief Executive in early July 2019. We have appointed Ingrid Jones, based in Palmerston North to a Policy and ProjectsPresident role and have recruited further people to our policy team.
