Smith scandal: Pullar 'very sorry' over resignation
Where was Bronwyn Pullar's respect for the privacy of the victims whose information she had accidentally been sent when she chose not to just delete their information? When she was allegedly attempting to blackmail ACC into a guaranteed benefit for two years? When she went to the media with the information she had received regarding these victims?
Nowhere.
That's where.
As usual - Whale Oil has the dirt regarding Bronwyn's threats to ACC and Nick Smith.
That Bronwyn is now crying about her privacy being breached and her reputation being treated with disdain is ... Un. Believe. Able.
Two weeks ago Ms Pullar, who suffered head injuries in a 2002 cycling accident, went to the media with data about 6700 ACC claimants, including victims of incest and sexual abuse.
The information appears to have been accidentally emailed to her by an ACC employee in August last year.
ACC alleges Ms Pullar attempted to secure a two year guaranteed benefit in exchange for the data, a claim that Ms Pullar disputes.
In her statement today, she said an ACC staff member had improperly accessed her claim file and lied to management about it.
She said ACC had early this week leaked her name to the media.
"[ACC] set out to intentionally destroy my privacy and reputation - an excellent example of how little regard ACC has for claimants' rights including respect for their privacy.
"It shows how ACC treats claimants with disdain. It show how ACC will smash anybody who dares speak out. Yet I am not easily intimidated," she said.

Bronwyn Pullar didn't breach anybodies privacy -ACC did. Pullar said she was concerned that ACC were publishing the names of strictly confidential sensitive claimants every month and broadcasting them to ACC offices every month. That is the crime and indicative of serious systemic failure of privacy at ACC. Pullar simply realised that problem one one else in ACC saw and she appears to have ACC to account whom did nothing about the breach for 3 1/2 months until it went public. Obviously ACC weremhoping to bury it.
Pullar has in fact down all claimants a favor as ACC privacy standards will improve as a result.
I can't believe this woman either for having the guts to stand up publicly to hold ACC to account - something even the Privacy Commissioner wouldn't do.
What a load of rubbish.
If Bronwyn Pullar had any morals or concern for the victims whose information she was accidentally sent at all - she would have done the right thing and pushed the delete button on that information - THEN she would have advised ACC of their error.
She would not allegedly have tried to blackmail them into paying her a benefit for two years, and then when that did not work she would not have gone to the media with the information that she had received.
All of that AFTER she had already received a one million dollar pay out over an accident that was not even serious enough to keep her in hospital for longer than one night.
Bronwyn Pullar had no one's interests in mind except her own when she neglected to just delete that email. She failed the "good person test" miserably.
The End.
Actually pushing delete would have removed the evidence of ACC's cock up.
"All of that AFTER she had already received a one million dollar pay out over an accident that was not even serious enough to keep her in hospital for longer than one night."
The length of time in hospital is irrelevant to compensation whats relevant is whether the accident cost a person there income and the amount of income they lost. If a person gets a non serious injury that means they loose a job that pays 5 million then ACC are required to compensate them for several million.
"She would not allegedly have tried to blackmail them into paying her a benefit for two years, and then when that did not work she would not have gone to the media with the information that she had received."
Nice, because she allegedly did something she did it.
I have heard allegations your still a hooker, should I post publicly to the world you are. After all if someone says something allegedly happend it happend.
It's baaaccckkk!
Good Lord - you are like a dog with a bone.
If i had any inclination to be a hooker - i would last about 5 minutes before one of my psychotic and obsessed stalkers - of which you are one - busted me. However - if you would like to say publicly that i am one - be my guest. Just make sure you have the guts to put your name to that statement.
My opinion re Bronwyn Pullar stands. She failed the good person test when she ignored the right to privacy of the victims whose information she had been sent. She herself became no better than ACC but at least their breach was an accident. That is my opinion regardless of whether or not she tried to use the information to secure a benefit with ACC.
Have a good day. Try to listen to the nice voices inside that head of yours for a change.
