Mr Dixon replied with a copy of section 81 of the Social Security Act 1964

Thank you for your letter dated 17 March 2008 requesting that we provide written verification of the clause/s to which you say specifically gives Work and Income the ability to request odometer readings.

The issues of your Disability Allowance and increase in kilometer allowable rate (petrol costs) have been forwarded to the Regional Solicitor for consideration. -The Solicitor advises as follows:

Under section 81 of the Social Security Act 1964 the Chief Executive can request the client or partner to provide any information or to answer any relevant question orally or in writing,

and in a manner specified by the Chief Executive. The case managers of Work and Income have the delegated authority of the Chief Executive to request such information. Section 81 states:

8l Review of benefits

(1)The chief executive may from time to time review any benefit in order to ascertain—

(a) whether the beneficiary remains entitled to receive it; or

(b)whether the beneficiary may not be, or may not have been, entitled to receive that benefit or

the rate of benefit that is or was payable to the beneficiary—

and for that purpose may require the beneficiary or his or her spouse or partner to provide any

information or to answer any relevant question orally or in writing, and in the manner specified

by the chief executive. If the beneficiary or his or her spouse or partner fails to comply with

such a requirement within such reasonable period as the chief executive specifies, the chief

executive may suspend, terminate, or vary the rate of benefit from such date as the chief

executive determines.

(2)If after reviewing a benefit under subsection (1), the chief executive is satisfied that the beneficiary is

no longer or was not entitled to receive the benefit or is or was entitled to receive the benefit at a

different rate, the chief executive may vary the rate of the benefit from such date

as the chief executive reasonably determines.

(3)If after reviewing a benefit under subsection (1), the chief executive considers the beneficiary is

more appropriately entitled to receive some other benefit, the chief executive may, in his or her

discretion, cancel the benefit the beneficiary was receiving and grant that other benefit commencing

from the date of cancellation.

The Regional Solicitor confirms that the odometer reading is required and is a viable request in order to review ongoing entitlement to the travel related cost component of your and your wife’s disability allowance.

The Solicitor is also seeking confirmation from you as to which car you use for you travelling. In your letter to the Chief Executive dated 16 January 2008 you stated that “at that time we had the 1800cc Corona.” However, in your letter dated 24 January 2008 to the Chief Executive you state “We owned - and still do - a 1800 cc 1991 Toyota Corona at the time the 78cents was allowed and is still used for most of our transport as it is a cheaper to run.”

Can you please confirm which car is used for travel. If both cars are used can you please provide odometer readings for both vehicles.

We look forward to receiving the requested information.

Remember!!

“We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6.12

Conceived by Satan, the evil plans of the coming new world government are even now being implemented. Their plans will continue to be carried out by unwitting politicians, organisations, and 'Christian' churches upon the ordinary bloke and his family.

Freedoms as we know them today will be taken away. Obey the New world Order or starve will be the order of the day.

You may be imprisoned or even put to death. Accept the 'Mark' or perish will be the command from those who will rule the world.
